Has anyone rigged up a recording device that effectively picks up anything that goes to the headset earphones (ie. ICS as well as radio transmissions as well as all background radio chatter)?
I'm thinking specifically of using this with a NATO plug, so instructions for doing it with a fixed-wing-type split lead thingy wouldn't help me (ref disclaimer above).
I'm asking for tips, or "good God don't even think about it" comments, because I've heard you can cause problems by using the wrong input signal to a "standard" microphone input on, say, an MP3 recording device, or dictaphone type thing, and subsequently fry the bugger.
Is this making sense to anyone?
