Antique Crank Phone Hack

Step 5 Antique Microphone Exposed:

The microphone is made of metal and Bakelite. The bakelite part is the black cone on the end of the mic arm right in front. Take it in your hand and turn it counter clockwise. Use no tools it will break.

Put it in a safe place where it wont fall. It is a brittle as glass.

The internal mic must be removed to install a modern mic as the old one will not work with the modern phone.

See the pictures for detailed removal instructions......
