Just out of curiosity, can you make a PSTN (Public Switched Telephone
Network) call from your radar station?


Yup.



Are the calls recorded?


Yup.



I've heard that you're not allowed to accept IFR cancellations which are
relayed via other aircraft. Is this correct?


Nope.



On a marginally related topic, my club had a talk recently about
in-flight medical emergencies. Let's say you were working me and I
said, "I've got a medical emergency, landing Podunk Municipal, get an
ambulance to meet me there" and then disappeared from the frequency.
What would you do?


I'd relay the request to somebody at Podunk; the tower, FBO, sherriff, etc.



Do you have the resources/authority to get a medical
team dispatched to Podunk?


Well, anybody can call 911.
