hi rodger yep, i know of these leeds from maplin, but it is the solid state recorder i need, and one that would have some sort of automatic activation so as it wouldnt be running when the phone wasnt in use. i already have a unit with a casette tape on it that pluggs directly into the phone socket, but i keep forgetting to turn the tape.

It plugs into the telephone jack point and the telephone lead then plugs into it. The other end I plug into a cassette recorder but could easily plug into a solid state recorder if I wanted to. To record just press the record button of the machine and it's done. The simplest and cheapest way I could find.
