Thanks Jon, This is mostly talking spots. Does the sound come through with decent quality?

That's how my dad records things off the radio to listen to later on his minidisc player. Out of the stereo into the minidisc. You can do it straight off your pc too from the internet radio.

I never had one before but my wife bought me one for Christmas. I had always planned to do this direct from my stereo component system. I mis-placed the manual for my sound blaster card. I don't have RCA type jacks on this cassette player. If I run a line from the headphone connector of the cassette player into the line-in connector of the sound card will that work?

Still using it for some tasks. but there are of course much better ones like Adobe Audition (expensive) Lembit ----- Original Message ----- From: "John Bartow" <john at winhaven.net> To: "_DBA-Tech" <dba-tech at databaseadvisors.com> Sent: Saturday, June 25, 2005 2:38 AM Subject: [dba-Tech] Recording from Cassette Tape to .wav > Hi All, > Well the time has arrived.
