Hi all,



I'm just wondering what type of MP3 recorder you use? I know there

are the

small handheld types used to record like an old tape recorder, but does

anybody use a software based, Windows O/S, for recording audio from the

radio?

IIRC you'll need to install the Lame MP3 DLL separately, but it's quite

straightforward.







Last version of Audacity I installed, the MP3 encoder was included in

the install.







MP3 is proprietary (Fraunhofer I think). FLAC sounds better and is free.

Memory is cheap so you can use Wave on Windows, for quality and

compatibility. Same resolution as audio CDs. Again though, .wav is

proprietary for uncompressed pcm type files.

C Crane company in Fortuna, California, sell a radio with built in audio recorder. Google,,, C Crane Radios
