Hi,

You can run multiple rotters on different jack ports.  The standard set up is 
something like:

ROTFORMAT="mp3" #Encoding format
ROTBITRATE=192 #Bit rate
ROTCHANNELS=2 #2 = Stereo
JACKNAME="rotter1"
ROTDELETEHOURS=2400 #Delete audio after x hours (2400 = 100 days)
ROTBUFFER=10 #Rotter internal buffer, increase if you have problems
ROTDIRSTRUCTURE="dailydir" #Organisation format man rotter for more info
LEFTJACKINPUT="system:capture_1" #Left Channel for rotter to connect to in the 
format of client:port
RIGHTJACKINPUT="system:capture_2" #Right Channel for rotter
ROTAUDIODIR="/var/audio" #Directory to store audio

rotter -f $ROTFORMAT -b $ROTBITRATE -c $ROTCHANNELS -n $JACKNAME -d 
$ROTDELETEHOURS -R $ROTBUFFER -L $ROTDIRSTRUCTURE -v -l $LEFTJACKINPUT -r 
$RIGHTJACKINPUT $ROTAUDIODIR

Obviously if you're running two change JACKNAME, [L & R]JACKINPUT and 
ROTAUDIODIR.

Out of all the random software I've ever used rotter has been the only thing 
thats never crashed on me in over a year of use (liquidsoap is nearly at 
2months of uptime which is my next most reliable excluding riv of course). 

Hope this helps,

Wayne

Yeah, that could work.

The stations are stereo, but I only need mono for logging purposes. well 
I guess I'll have to try.
