Can I damage my amp and/or pre amp if I...

I just upgraded my system from a receiver to components. After hemorraging all my money, I find I am wanting for a tuner for FM. My question is, until I can afford a tuner, can I take the FM signal out of my former receiver, a Yamaha R9, and send it to the pre without damaging any of the components involved? There is a "Record Out" selector switch on the R9 that will direct a source signal from a CD or phono, for example, to a tape deck. Can I cable from the "Rec Out" jacks of the receiver to inputs at the pre amp after setting the "Rec Out" switch to "Tuner"?
Any help about this would be greatly appreciated. If there is another way to get an FM signal from my old tuner, please advise.
Thanks in advance.

That'll work fine! But stay away from the Magnum Dynalab Tuners because you'll just be wanting to move up in their product line.. I started with the FT-11, upgraded to FT101 and am now a proud owner of the 2001 Etude Model (which is the same as the new MD100). It is much more fun to listen to this tuner than cd's! Magnum sound is very musical and warm... Etude is the starting point where there is a decent soundstage and imaging. The FT101 and FT11 were great compared to my receiver tuner but can't compete with the Etude.

Hope I didn't aggrevate the hemorraging :)
