Well,
We do routinely reocrd the entire contest for all three stations here at =
KV1W M/M.
The point is not to listen to it, although it does provide interesting =
background for the prep and cheerleading sessions to get psyched.
The point is that WL provides the proper indexing to listen to =
individual contacts either during the contest of later. We find it =
really interesting for review of the UBN data. Most of the times it is =
interesting to see how mistakes were made.
Good luck to all in WW

Hi Tom:
You may have to install Windows Media Player 7.1 to get the MPEG 3 =
Compression format available to choose from Writelog.=20
Here, I am using 32 kBit/s 11,025 3 Kb/s MPEG-3 format option. =
File for one hour of recorded audio is 14 Mb in size. For the entire =
contest it comes up to 672 Mb. It should fit on 80 minute CD. =20
