Ang: [sdiy] DAT-recorder controlling

[MAKoot MAKoot]

Hi Daniel
That's an interesting idea! Although that would mean that I would have to
take the thing apart, and that's sadly enough no option. It must be done via
the remote control input, otherwise there's no use.
But thanks anyhow, it's an interesting idea.

cheers,
Michiel
