The Philips Telephone Pickup Microphone (9162) allows you to record interviews over the phone. This convenient accessory is compatible with the following voice recorders and related items from Philips: Digital Pocket Memo 9600, 9500 series, 9370 and Conference Recording System 955, all Digital Desktops, and Analog Pocket Memos.
I bought these to work with my Philips DVT5500 Digital Voice Recorder. I use them for emergency situations when I'm away from home or office and am either reduced to using a pay phone, a hotel phone, etc. where I can't use my regular gear to hook up my recorder to the phone system. This product does work, does give you good quality sound from the other end of the conversation (the party that you called), however does not pick up your voice with the same clarity and volume, but still is good enough quality as to be clear and understandable. Otherwise I would have rated it 5 of 5.
