Hi Richard,
I'm recording from a talking book machine. This is something that I recorded at slow speed years ago. I'm using one of the library of congress machines.
What sort of cord would I ned?

Hi,
You want a stereo patch cord with two male phono  jacks on one end and a
male 3.5 MM plug on the other end.  The phono jacks are also called RCA
plugs.
This is assuming you have a tape deck that would be part of a home stereo
system.
You may need an attenuated cord if the source signal is too strong, but I'd
start with a regular cord.
Radio Shack, "Circuit City, or other stores that sell a range of stereo
equipment should have the cords.

Has anyone tried recording a tape onto the icon or Braille plus?
I would like to do this but am not sure what sort of patch cord to buy.

Also regarding recordings I am still trying to figure out how I can record
something from TV or radio without getting background noise from the house
like us talking and soforth. It is not feedback persay but just the noise
around the recorder. I would think that if the icon was plugged in to the
stereo from which I was recording I would not be able to pick up outside
noise. I have tried setting the icon on internal and external mike and
neither ones work for this.

 OK, I've got a question concerning recordings.  This has actually happened

to me quite a number of times.  I've been recording and all of a sudden, I'm

back at the applications menu, no warning, and it is at this point that the
recording is cut off.  Does anyone have any ideas why this might be?
