Darklog will do the job: http://www.radio.warwick.ac.uk/software/logging.htm It's a pig to compile and get working though. I believe it is actually possible to do this with Darkice as it can output to a file. This might help... http://groups.drupal.org/node/8475 I've been trying to get something similar working for a hospital radio station (albeit it's not legal logging) but not actually had much time to get a solution working. Another option if you have a fast enough machine is to setup a cron job to record using something like alsa'a arecord and give it a duration of 86400 seconds (24 hours) and get it to run say at 12am every night, and then have another cron job which compresses the existing audio into OGG or MP3 format (from experience when I worked at GCap we used to send audio on CD in WMA format to Ofcom so presumably they'd probably want either audio CDs or MP3/WAV format audio).
