The manual indicates it should > work this way. Anyone else finding the same on their CTR-82? If the CTR-82 is like the CTR-75, then AUX and MIKE jacks require different signal levels and the recorder will behave differently if your radio is not plugged into the appropriate jack. The AUX jack requires a higher signal level than the MIKE input. I find the 2 jack arrangement makes the recorder more flexible as my radios differ in the audio output levels available at their TAPE jacks (e.g. the R-7000 and PRO-2004). -- ============================================================================ Bob Parnass, AJ9S - AT&T Bell Laboratories - att!ihuxz!parnass (708)979-5414
