So, I just got my second Recordio the other day and I need to open these things up to figure out how to tap an audio input (1/4" jack) into the cutting amp. Is this as simple as replacing the radio output line that connects to the recording portion?

I don't expect it to be tough to figure out but just wondered if anyone has details or info while I wait a month of so for the heat here to cool down before I can work on it. My garage is about as cool as Satan's asshole right.

When Gib Epling ...

I think it was a good solution. This way, I can still use the radio!
