Is it legal to record a phone conversation in Ohio?

I heard a long time ago that it is OK in Ohio to record a phone call as long as one of the parties on the call is doing the recording. Is this true??
Answer:
If some one calls you, and your answering machine picks up, then during the recordings of your machine you pick up and talk then YES you can record because they knew.

the only other way you can legally record any convercation on the phone or in person is if the other person is life threating and denies it in court then you can play the threating messages, or if both of you know you are being recorded.

any other time you can not record with out permission.
i dont know it it will hold up in court but they do sell the devices to record on both house phones and cell phones.. they dont cost really that much around 30dolllars for the recorder and then you need a tape recorder to go with them.. i got one for my cell i never use though i got it for someone else to use. and he chicken out on using it for the perpose it was intended for.. i will later on get one for the house phone.. kinda interestind when people talk on those things and dont know you are recording them... i once had one yrs ago and caught a niece running around on her bf
