    Switching Audio Inputs To PC Simply ?


    Hello,

    What a great Forum.

    Have recently purchased a scanner radio for monitoring vhf/uhf local frequencies.
    Fine radio, but a very poor internal speaker.

    Would like to run its Line-Out into my PC, and use the PC's external speakers that I have on my desk, and
    also, possibly, some of the audio apps/programs on the PC for adjusting the sound "quality".

    Running Windows 7, the 64 bit edition on a Desktop PC.

    Here's my question:

    My son uses the PC also, as a different "User".
    Even if he didn't use, I really don't want to go into the Control Panel, Hardware and Sound, and....

    to change it over every time between the scanner's audio Line-Output, and some program he (or me) might be using, or some music he might have on an external HD, that also has audio on it.

    What I would like, if there is such a thing, is a very simple, method (or icon) on my desktop that I can use to very simply switch these inputs with just a click or so ?

    Is there such a method ?

    Suggestions would be most welcome.

    Thanks,
    Bob

    There probably is a utility somewhere to do that. But, I don't know what they are. A google search is your best option.
