I am not familiar with the ICOM F-521 DB9, but hopefully some others have a suggestion for that. Bill _____ From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of John A.

I suspect some type of VOX circuit is required. Your thoughts?

I do this every day, (right now 9 baseball games over 11 days) recording from my audio mixer board to my laptop, and editing highlights (home runs and runs scored sound bites) using an audio editor. We also mix the audio and affects, and send it back to the home station (i.e. Tigers, Marlins, or Phillies for these 9 games) for the live (about 3 hour) broadcast of the games. Most of us use Cool Edit, which is now Adobe Audition. HOWEVER ~ FREE IS BETTER. There is a really great program that is FREE - called Audacity. I would not hesitate to use it in the broadcast world. It does everything I would need to do a broadcast. Go check it out at http://audacity. <http://audacity.sourceforge.net/> sourceforge.net/ The audio quality is equal or better than our 20 Hz. to 7.5 KHz audio broadcasts via ISDN from the ballpark back to the station. You can cut, paste, change levels, and edit around anything you want, including smooth out audio levels, very gracefully.

Recorder will need to interface with ICOM F-521 base station possible via a repeater controller of some sort. Recorder must be PC base for network archiving purposes. Any suggestions on controller or recording device? Rgds, John No virus found in this incoming message. Checked by AVG.
