I have no idea, but use Utility->Talkshow->Area Host (thank you Augir)

Setting up an Untuned Microphone
- An untuned microphone is an inventory item, but it currently has no artwork. Dropping it can be problematic. You will only see a pink box, which may flicker and be difficult to click on to pick it back up. Try clicking on your avatar, Utility, Temporarily make nearby portables look like bags.
- With the untuned microphone in your inventory, click on your avatar, Special, Tune a Microphone
- Pop-up window: Name of station? This is what players will type in to join the channel.
- The microphone is automatically dropped where you are standing. You can pick it back up and drop it elsewhere if the spot isn't to your liking.
