Touch Tone Terrorist
Don't cut corners with a cheap deck that might fail in the middle of a great call! You will record on two channels so that the volume levels of your voice and the caller's voice can later be balanced / mixed in post production. Set your record levels so that they peak at 0 db to + 6 db. If you record at levels that are too low you will start to introduce 'tape hiss' noise. Record too loud and you'll get distortion.

Yamaha SPX-90 or Yamaha SPX 90 II ($100 used) - I use the 'pitch shift C' patch to make my voice sound like Willie, Stu, Blade, Tic Tac, Arianna Huffington, and Clarence. Gentner SPH-3A phone hybrid ($150 - $300 used) or Gentner SPH 10 - There's many different brands and models of phone hybrids, including the new digital ones. The problem with the digital hybrids is that they pick up inbound calls as soon as they are powered on. When an inbound call comes in, by the time your equipment warms up (usually about 5 seconds) and you put your headphones on (a couple more seconds) the caller has usually already hung up. You want to have your equipment warmed up and ready to go so that you can say 'Hello can I help you?'
If this were the case then the medium of observation would certainly be via radio. CD # 4 - the Junkyard Willie tapes 1 hour and 8 minutes of ANGRY calls!

So as not to sound like a repeat of the last CD, the Touch-Tone Terrorist disconnected ALL of his old numbers and started from scratch with all NEW phone numbers. So this CD has inbound calls for all new businesses such as a long distance phone compan ies, auto insurance companies, a ps ychic hotline, department stores, office supplies companies, an automobile 'repo man', credit card companies, an auto rental company, and more. 
The auto insurance calls are REALLY funny.

We are told that WNCD in Youngstown Ohio airs TTT bits almost daily on the Big Radio Show. Rock 103 in Memphis created a TTT stir by airing City Brake, Ho De Do, Drunk Job Applicant, and Mongoloid Moron. Please if you've heard anything off TTT 3. KQRC in Kansas City has also been airing TTT a lot. Tune in to Johnny Dare in the morning! Seems Jim Bob is a favorite with listeners. We are told that Johnny Dare has actually run into a call subject off one of the 3 CD's!
Audio Technica 3035 condenser mic ($200) or Shure SM-58 ($100) - I used a Shure SM-58 for most of my CD's though. Condensers (3035) have more clarity than cardioids (SM-58). Cables, mic stand, pop screen (about $100) Rolls DB25 ($30) Uninterrupted Power Supply - Optional.
It's actually a full time job. For me to record a whole new 70 minute CD would take about 2 years of full time work, acquiring tons of 800 numbers as they become available, writing and testing out prank call ideas, refining how I lead the caller on, locating the callers when an album quality call occurs (sometimes through a detective), approaching them to sign a release, paying them, then mastering the audio tracks and album art. Promoting a release takes about a month in advance of the release date. Preparing to battle file sharing takes about 4 months as well, and the battle that follows is on-going. The total cost of releasing an album is about $15,000 (not including my invested time). YOUR QUESTION: Why is it $5.99 on Amazon for only 7 calls? I set the price as LOW as is allowed by my distributor, so don't blame me.
