Calling into the Live Show

  1. Move bubble containing text MY MOVE IS E4 generated at wigflip.com

    During live shows, there is a 212 New York number you can use to call in to speak to the host.

  2. You can also call into the show through the Internet as well, using any Voice over IP software that allows you to call the 212 New York number. Please use a quality headset so the show audio goes straight to your ears, and isn't picked up again through your mic. Test your audio levels before calling so that we will be more likely to patch you through to the show!

  3. A third way to call in is to use the free software program iaxComm:

    Setting up

    1. Install iaxComm to your Windows, Unix, or MacOSX system.
    2. Click the Options menu, then select Accounts.
    3. Click the Add button and fill in the details as shown in the picture.
    4. For the password, use ``guest'' without the quotes.
    5. Click the Save button.

    Call the show!

    1. Enter digits 8150 into the Extension field.
    2. To the right, select ``Chess Now!'' from the Account pull down menu.
    3. Click the Dial button and listen to the instructions.

    Alternate dialing method

    1. Look for the input field above the Dial button
    2. Type in chessnow:guest@iax.fractal-interval.com/8150

  5. MacOSX users can also try Remwave Communicator
  6. If your office or home has an IP based telephone system, you will most likely be able to configure a convenient extension number that will dial into Chess Now. Please see the previous notes about configuring a SIP phone or simply refer your telephone administrator to this page.
