File: 10.dollar.red.box
Author: Toxic Avenger (toxic@phantom.com)
I bought the guts to a hallmark card at 3 pm yesterday, before 5 I had a
working box... Heres the instructions for the compleat idiot (or those
just having trouble)
Materials:
---------
1 Hallmark digital recording card (~$8, card store)
1 1/8 inch mono phono plug (~$1 or in a junk bin)
1 SPST switch, or momentary contact NORMALLY OPEN (~$1 or junk bin)
The QUARTER.VOC File (and access to a sound card to play it, and software
that lets you loop it) *THIS FILE IS UUENCODED AT THE END OF THIS TEXT*
1 case of some sort (I used a case from a DAT, but anything you can put
the stuff in will work. Perhaps the case from a Data Tape or a 8mm Video
tape, or just a casette)
1 Tube of silicone sealant (epoxy will probably do, I just happened to
have silicone on hand)
What to do:
----------
1. Remove all components from the plastic thing inside the card, this
includes sliding the battry pack out of it's drawer.
2. Cut the following wires:
Both wires going to microphone (both are green, mark which one goes to
the center of the mike)
Both wires to the battery pack (red and white)
Both wires to the switch mechanisim (green and black)
2a. (OPTIONAL) It is a wise idea (if you are fairly experienced at
soldering/desoldering on small PC boards) to desolder all the wires and
replace them with ones of a thicker gauge. THe ones that hallmark
supplies are just too damn thin and have a real tendancy to break at
connections. REMEMBER, the wires in this card are supposed to be
protected in the little plastic grooves that you removed them from.
3. Discard the switch mechanisim.
4. Wrap the battery pack in electrical tape (I used red tape just to be
cheesy, since the box is clear)
5. Solder the SPST switch to the black and green wires that used to go to
theo original switch (polarity is NOT important)
6. Solder the phono plug to the 2 green wires. Polarity shouldn't really
be important, but to be on the safe side, the wire that ran to the center
of the mike (I told you to mark it) should go to the TIP of the plug.
7. Connect the battery. (This battery pack puts out 6.25VDC, I suppose
you could replace it with another battery, but why bother?) POLARITY IS
EXTREMELY IMPORTANT!. The red wire goes to the Positive terminal, and
the white goes to the negative. On my box, if the pack is laying flat,
with the exposed part of the batteries pointing up, the positive terminal
is the one on the left (if you are facing the terminals) I'd use a
multimeter just to be sure.
8. Glue the pc board to the top of the battery (this saves space and
hassle later, but is not necessary for operation)
9. Program the thing...
I used the QUARTER.VOC file (sorry, i don't have a copy of it in any other
format) and I looped it 10 times, with a random delay of between .5
and 1 seconds between each quarter (who puts them in at regular intervals
anyway?)
Plug the phono plug into your soundcard, turn the volume Waaaaaaay
down (trial and error will give you the proper volume) and play the
voc file (after setting the switch on the pc board to the record
position, and flipping the SPST at the beginning of the VOC file)
10. Test it...
Best way to test is to call a long distance Directory Assistance (Im
partial to 808-555-1212 which is Hawaii)
If it doesn't work, go back to step 9. The ideal volume is one that can
be heard clearly, but does not cause the speaker to break up.
11. Once you have the thing programmed, there is no need to keep the
phono plug attatched. If you want to save room, cut it off.
12. Put the thing in the case. Drill several holes in the case where the
speaker will mount. I mounted the speaker with silicone very carefully
applied to the edges of the speaker. Same was true of the battery pack.
The switch obviously mounts in a hole on the side of the case.
Thats it...
Comments/Questions:
Why the SPST Switch?
First off, I thought the switch that came with the thing looked really
cheaply made, and would probably break. Secondly, bu putting in a switch
instead of a momentary switch, it allows me to record $2.50 on the box,
and play the whole thing back just by flipping the switch, rather than
having to hold it down.
There you have it. the Under $10 red-box.
