If I want to record the online radio programs from PC to tape recorder, what
cable I should use, or software? I tried to use built-in sound recorder
program, but it can't record it.

Please advise. Thanks!

Hi Matt
I love audio that's my thing I do alot of recording But I perfer to use cd
insted of tape.
but it's all the same setup if youre recording to an external device. go to
redio shack and ask for sterio 1/8" cable into RCA jacks. plug the 1/8" end
into the output of your PC and the 2 RCA jacks into the input of your tape
deck.
Good Luck.............Rich

I did what Richard describes. I did my connection via my stereo amplifier.
This allows one to keep the stereo components still connected and makes for
less drain on the computer and a better quality tape. If you have a laser
disk player input in the back of your amplifier, you can connect the RCA
plugs there and not have to undo your CD player.

If you are using a standard cassette tape recorder get a
1/8" stereo male-male and plug it into line out on your
sound card and the mic in on the tape.
