I bought a Recptor and I am just starting out. I also bought two 1MB's of RAM. I wish to install it in the Receptor. How do I do it? Can it be done yourself? Are there any directions online? Diagrams? I have installed RAM in an Oasys and managed it. Is this more difficult?

If you have 2 x 1Gb of RAM, just open the Receptor, remove the RAM stick(s) and replace with the new ones before reputting the case in place. Very simple.
The only thing is to make sure you use recommended RAM. Better use known brands, and better use PC3200 although PC2700 works as well. Bad RAM can cause all sorts of misapps such as crackling sound or crashes.
