If the person who did this video is a member here, THANKS! it was one of the easiest things I've built yet thanks to how well it is explained. this one worked perfectly at first testing. The radio cost me $0.69 at the local thrift store, I wish it had more tone control than either "High"or "Low", will watch for that next time, or maybe go with a boom-box with an EQ and a working cassette deck or CD burner for some recording capability.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6wr0I7TuRUoRead more…
I could really believe how simple it was, they should be teaching that hack in about 7th grade shop class along with making a CBG. The hardest part was finding a spot to put the jack, even on a radio that old they didn't leave many empty pockets inside, the only one spot I could find where a 1/4 inch standard jack would fit is right where it is. I could have gotten by with a 1/8 inch jack in a few more spots, but I wanted to stick with the 1/4 inch if possible.
