Hey Fellas,

Went hunting again and my mentor used a Johnny Stewart e-caller. It played tapes.

I was wondering if there are ways to make your own setup. He spent about $200. All i saw in the bag was a cassette player hooked up to some sort of amplifier to power up an outdoor speaker.

Anyone make their own e-caller? (It looks too simple to have to pay $200 for...That and i'm broke and can't call worth a damn )

Thanks for the info,
Neil

Niel,

I too, am too poor to buy a $200 e-caller...

Lucky for you and me, a nice man has written this article on how to build a good one... so good in fact, that it is said one of the commercial ones is a copy of the design commercially produced.

If you already own a walkman/discman you should be able to put one together for well under $50!

There is also an article there on how to record your own tapes using your computer as a studio.

You should find both of these articles very helpful,

Jeff
