Looks like the updated version of the one I had for years & years. Worked just fine.
The difference between it & the one on BSW is that the one on BSW is smarter, smarter than what you're looking for. The one on BSW that's closer to what you're looking for is this one: http://www.bswusa.com/proditem.asp?item=QUICKTAP
But it's still 2x as much as the Radio Shack one. It probably has a slightly better transformer in it, but given that phone audio is heavily bandwidth-limited at the telco end, using a shitty RatShack transformer isn't going to make a hell of a lot of difference.
One of these days I'll digitize the tape of my 21-year-old self interviewing Exene Cervenka & getting her so pissed off that she almost hung up on me. She was doing a solo tour that was cosponsored by Ben & Jerry's & I guess I kept calling it the Ice Cream Tour. Hoo boy, she was ticked about that.
Anyway, it was made with one of those Radio Shack doodads. Like I said, worked just fine.

Gentlemen:
Many thanks for the tips. On the off-chance that someone else might
find this string useful, I'll add this one to the mix:

Quite possibly a cheaper version of what Mr. Rossi is recommending? A
friend had pointed me toward it as a means of more directly going from
phone to computer. I have long used the "cassette recorder leaning over
next to the speakerphone" method and it works to a degree. But let's
just say the fear of ambient sounds has led me to look for
alternatives.
Many thanks,

You plug your phone through it and you get a regular audio out you can
plug into your recorder of choice.
There are a couple of other options on the right.
Googling broadcast supply will bring up other broadcast supply houses
and you can see what devices they have that do the same thing.

Hello, all.
I am in need of something that will allow me to simply record telephone
conversations and render the resulting sound files as MP3s. In the
journalism old-school, people had a little suction-cup tapper they'd
put on the phone while hooking the other end to a cassette recorder.
The new-school digital voice recorders seem great--and I'm on the verge
of buying one--but can anyone splain to me how I could best capture
that elusive voice on the other end of the line?
Thanks, and happy holidays.
