>From what I understand, you cant control an MD portable like that (although
I bet there is some DIY approach to it, but thats not what we're on about
here), what it means is a proper 6 or 10 MD or CD changer, the ones where
you put about 10 MD's/CD's in a magazine and hope that they will last your
journey. The best idea (although money constraints may stop you) is to have
an MD head unit, so you can change to whatever MD you fell like bringing
with you, but thats going slightly down a different path anyway. To answer
your question, unless you can construct a CD/MD control to MD remote port
module, or buy one from someone who has already done (but an MD head unit
could be cheaper anyway), theres no forseeable way of doing it without
spending a few bob.

Subject: MD: MD interface with Mobile Sony XR-CA300

> Hi,

> This is a sort-of middle topic, but someone out there must have experience
with this type of problem.

> I just bought a Mobile Sony radio/cassete deck with CD/MD changer control
capabilities and
> tried the following:
> The Mobile head unit's got RCA inputs at the back and I connected a
RCA cable to it to
> connect to my portable Sony MD, so that I don't have to give the MD
input via the tape unit with that
> special 'CD courier' (I think that's what it's called) connector
device that is a RCA cable connected to a special
> tape.
> BUT, the mobile head unit doesn't want to change the source to the MD,
thus I can't give the input to the mobile
> head unit. There is a MD/CD changer control plug at the back as well,
and I suspect that you need the special

then will the head unit register that
> there is more input to select from. But I want to give input from the
portable unit, so how and what now.
