I remember someone using a VCR tape for audio recording from the radio.
He set the record time to six hours and when recording, would write down
the time in order to locate a desired segment at a later date.

How is the sound quality at such a slow tape speed? Speech may be
acceptable, but would music still be of good enough quality?

The sound quality is more than adequate for shortwave. Many VCRs act
funny if you try to record without video present, so you need to use
the VCR in simulcast mode. It doesn't matter what video you use. THe
VCR needs the video for timing.

I think recording on the PC is less work, plus you can use sound
editors such as Audacity, SoundForge, etc.
