This would make the CTR-82 a dud. It's the voice activation {while connected to a radio that makes a VOX recorder so useful. I purchased a CTR-82 recently and found it activates only from the built-in microphone and the mic input jack, but not the auxillary jack. This is using a Sony 2010 from the recorder jack and a Bearcat 200XLT from the earphone jack. It works fine this way but I don't understand why plugging into the aux jack doesn't activate it also. The manual indicates it should work this way. Anyone else finding the same on their CTR-82? *_______________*_________________________________________*_______KNH1CA_____* | Steve Dowman | Email: s_dowman@leaf.enet.dec.com | Home: | | d|i|g|i|t|a|l | -or- s_dowman%leaf.dec@decwrl.dec.com | 145 Coburn Woods | | Littleton, MA | -or- ...!decwrl!leaf.dec.com!s_dowman | Nashua, NH 03063 | *~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*
