Partyline: How do I take audio from the PL line and dry it out to send to a recording device?

Question:  I want to peel off my party line audio in a way thatisolates the 30 volts so we can record the director'strack to a tape machine ? Any recommendationsand/or does Clear Com offer any isolators to do this ?

Answer:  Your need is very common---  So easy to do…
If you have an unused beltpack   --- take pins 3 and 4 at the headset connector  --  This will provide you with an isolated audio feed and abundant level – use the volume control to find a comfortable sweet spot
No beltpack available?  Grab the 4 pin connection off any remote station --- or,  from your Main/Master Station  - -  
Better yet, purchase a TR-50 – Talent receiver --- It can be used to feed your recorder.
Why not from the microphone cable connecting Clear-Com ---  Using Pins 1 & 3 --?     Not recommended --  You want Isolation and you don’t want to load the Clear-Com line  --- meaning your bridging impedance should be very high  --- 20, 000 ohms or greater.
