Chuck,
Ah, now I understand. Like you, I would not want to record all
frequencies all of the time. I set a cassette from :58-:02 each hour and
that would be fine. If I did that and then checked the open channels,
that would work. Who has the time to listen to the whole spectrum. hi.

Walt,
We have very little choice here. Costco has a number of laptops. Fred
Meyer has a few more. I like hands on before I would buy. I may
venture into Portland too.
Recording 4 minutes each hour would not fill up much of the space, so
that should work with even the 320 GB HD. I did not

I had never considered an SDR until this thread. I'm really intrigued by the
prospect of recording the entire band and then coming back to it five or 10
years from now. It would be interesting to listen to how things have
changed.

I saw that too.
I believe that FLAC has to convert to integer data for the compression.
I don't know what the A/D format of the Perseus is?
The Flex is integer I believe.

Exactly. I've got quite a few cassettes from the '80s, but they don't
provide the same thrill as being able to relive an entire night's worth
of DXing from another era.
I do have cassette going back to 92 when I bought the R8, but reel to

Thank you all for your quick response. I have my full sized computers,
both Windows XP, but I was thinking on a decent laptop with a wifi to
travel with. If I go the way of the SDR receiver, I might as well have

Thanks. One of inexpensive computers will work with an SDR? I am
