Even better - get a Phone Patch.  Hams use them all the time, check
with Ham Radio Outlet (or check the back of QST, 73 amateur radio,
CQ, or any other amateur-radio related magazine you can happen to
run into, for vendors of ham-related equipment).  Our church recently
ran a phone patch for the entire church (!) using a phone patch and
the existing sound system.  Seems to me that the person talking to the
people on the remote phone connection used a mic connected to the
audio system....  If all else fails, I can get you in touch
with one of the people involved here (all I did was talk to
him about what they had done ;-)

Advantages - cheap, they work, and you don't have to build it yourself ;-)
