Good tips. I defrag my PC but never thought of doing it with my phone. If I mass delete my cookies, all sorts of things have to be set up again....
Thanks for pointing that out. The question remains if the remote control jack is wired to be default pause or not. What is the fidelity loss...
Using a walkman and Audacity on a computer to turn about 50 commercial and self-recorded cassettes into mp3's. The quality can't be any worse than...
My suggestion, which I frequently regret not using, is to compose long posts in a text file. Again and again I have run into problems with photo...
The problem with that is the input jacks for the two mics are separate and mono, and one of the mics has a switch to pause recording. So one of...

My only boom box, a Sanyo M9998. Don't worry, it's all reassembled and everything works except the AM band. As the original owner I have...

I've just finished digitizing about 50 cassettes. About half are commercial albums and the others were blank cassettes that I recorded music onto...
What would be a really neat feature for any modern boom box or cassette player would be a setting to convert and store, as an mp3 in internal...
I'm not going to be much help since I've been struggling with my own M9998. I can only offer some ideas. Hopefully the real experts will offer...
