My radio is a Kenwood R5000, with a "Record" jack on the front, and my
laptop has a microphone input which hopefully I can use to get the audio
into the machine.

When the R5000 first came out one very popular reviwer panned it's recording
capabilty because the record out was so distorted it was unuseable.

Turn out he missed the point that it was LINE level and not microphone
level. If you have a LINE in on you computer use it. You may want to get
a cable to combine both inputs to get the mono signal on both chanels
of your stereo computer.

If you only have a MIC input on your computer buy an antennuater plug
from Radio Shack. Just look for a device to allow you to record LINE
strength signals from a cassete recorder with only MIC input.
