I have some 1/4" tapes I'd like to transfer from an old Uher 4000 Report
recorder to CD.

I would suggest using another machine for playback. The Uher 4000
(The Report-L anyway, though not the Monitor) was much better at recording
than playback.

Problem is that the "Radio/Phono" connection is a 5-pin din and I'm not sure
which pins (if any) will give me a line-out to feed to a soundcard line in.
There is also a 2-pin "Speaker/Earphone" out, and a mystery 6 pin din out
marked with a triangle (power?).

You can get an adaptor cable to take the 5-pin DIN to four RCA connectors
(two of which will be unused since it's a mono machine) from Radio Shack.
It's a standard item although you'll probably have to special order it.
I suggest doing this.

The 6 pin DIN has power as well as inputs and outputs, and is intended to
slave the Uher to a home stereo system with one cable.
