I have a tape deck, but it is connected to the Amp. Actually, I've run
out of Amp inputs, so if I can somehow connect the Tape Deck via the
Tuner and make the Amp think the Tuner & Tape Deck are just a Tape
Deck, I'd be happy. Is that the idea?

Yes.


So could I, for instance, connect the Tuner to the TapeDeck i/o of the
Amp, and the Cassette Deck to the TapeDeck i/o of the Tuner, and thus
free up an Aux input on my Amp? Would the rec/playback switch on the
Tuner thus allow me to record other devices attached to the Amp?

Yes. Connect the tape deck to the tuner and the tuner to the amp.

How can you connect a tape deck to a tuner? It has to be the other way
around. The tuner connects to the record/ in jacks of the tape deck,
then the tape deck connects it's out/play jacks to the amp. To listen
to the tuner you push tape on the amp, then set the tape deck to
monitor it's recording input, the tuner. On older tape decks you may
have to leave the tape deck in record-pause mode to have it monitor
the tuner.
