2. What happens if someone takes a second phone off-hook when the Broadcast Host is on a call? Broadcast Host will treat the other local voice the same as the caller. It will attempt to keep transmit audio from returning back with the caller’s audio, but this becomes more difficult with this scenario. - Page 15 FAQs 7. I need to be able to use my Broadcast Host at an office building but they only have a multi-line PBX phone system. Is there some way I can still connect this device? Talk to their phone specialist and ask for a standard analog line. Any line that can be used for a fax machine or modem should work fine.
