How do I mute a landline phone that doesn't have a mute button?

i.e. I want to listen in on a conference call, but don't want them to hear any noises from my end.

Thanks.

Duck tape?

Doesn't work. Still senses vibrations.

If it doesn't have a mute button, then there's nothing you can do except be really quiet. Not all landline phones have mute functions built in.

put rubber bands around the phone head, take a glass cup to cover it. Rubber bands should make it not slip and insulated.

Hold your breath till you turn blue.

put on speaker phone & do the call @ 3AM

am I the only one reading this thread and wonder.... what the ....

lol, I'm fairly certain that if you don't want them to hear you on the call, you shouldnt be on the call lol

Maybe its a business call and they are just an employee who needs to listen?

logic says: if that was the case, then they would ask their boss or someone in the office who would know... lol

Im going with a no on that one :p

however, employee listening to a call... without trying to be detected, ie... evesdropping.. more probable lol
