[BC] Aircheck Recording

[Mark W. Croom]

We've been using Total Recorder, a shareware audio recording program that 
has a nice simple scheduler. I set up a basic XP Pro box with Total Recorder 
and have been recording with it quite reliably since last January.

Well, I should say reliably for Windows. I let it go three months one time 
and it did require a reboot. I generally access it for file management using 
TightVNC over my LAN. And typically I restart it monthly as I do my 
streaming encoder. They are together so it's easy to do them both at the 
same time.

Total Recorder doesn't have "automatic" file management like a real logger 
program, and if you need that feature you probably want to use the real 
thing. If you don't mind going in every so often and cleaning out files, 
then TR might be just what you need.

It's not a Telos Profile or iMedia Logger, but it works pretty well for 
KJLY.
