What is a Microphone
A Microphone is an object that creates an Egypt-wide chat channel. However, the game requires a Moderator to actively post players' messages via a Callboard. If there is no Moderator available, posts will not appear in the channel. Only 1 Moderator may hold the Callboard for the mic at a time. You can also find the Microphone in Egypt and speak in main, broadcasting your message without the Moderator (this is generally not appreciated).
It requires 3 Microphone Parts or 1 Untuned Microphone to assemble a microphone
Join a Microphone channel by typing "/join <name of channel>" in chat
- "/join" is case sensitive

I have no idea, but use Utility->Talkshow->Area Host (thank you Augir)
Set the Microphone to Use by Elder only. This is the setting to PICK UP AND WALK AWAY with the mic.
Moderating
A box will appear and messages will be shown as they are typed by folks around Egypt.
- S: Save the message for later (pins it)
- P: Post
- x: Delete
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.
