   A few hours ago I started writing this Reply but couldn't remember if I sent   
   it out or not, so I edited it some more and am sending it now.

   I am/was trying to use a portable AM/FM/CD/Cassette Radio,   
   Jensen Model:CD-545 I bought from a Target Store.   
   There is only one Output Jack, the Headphone Jack on it.   
      
   I do have a Dual Cassette Tape Deck here if I had to get the audio from it.   
      
   Could I connect the output of it to the Line In jack on my pc to use it   
   with Audacity?

   I saw the USB connector in the illustration, but for me to get the audio   
   into the product You and Mike have, I still would have to 'Transform' the   
   Impedance from Speaker to Line level when using my Jensen Radio.   
      
   Above I wrote that my HP XP pc has MS's Media Center OS in it.   
      
   I thought that the Audio Components on HP's motherboard would be better than   
   "Plain Jane" audio on a regular Sound Card plugged in a motherboard,   
   or was built-in on the motherboard of a XP pc produced before MS designed   
   the Media Center version for XP.   
      
   So my question is: "Do I 'really' need USB Input to get the sound into   
   Audacity?".   
      
   Thanks Again.
