What is involved in recording all your qso's in a contest?
I use N1MM which has a feature "Record QSOs", but I've yet to figure it out.
I'd like to record everything in mp3 format. Do you need to have stand-alone audio program running - such as Audacity? What keeps the size of the files to a level where they would not slow down your computer?
K5TR has mp3 audio files online where he recorded entire contests, but broken into one hour segments. How did he (or anyone) set this up?

I've never been able to make the record function of N1MM work. Audacity works great and will allow you to go back later and divide the track into segments.

Try Scanner Recorder available for free at:

I usually work CW, but here is a link to some recordings made using Scanner Recorder:
http://ka8vit.com/qso
I've used Scanner Recorder to record for 10-days straight.
Using 8,000 Hz, 8-bit mono recording settings, makes for smaller files while allowing you to decode recorded digital mode signals or DTMF tones at a later time too.
If recording AM, bump it to 22,050 Hz.
I take the audio from the headphone jack to the soundcard mic input and then put my headphones into the soundcard output jack.
I set the rig volume to 10-o'clock and using the windows recording control to adjust the recording gain.
My rig has a 'monitor' function which will put the transmit audio to the headphone in the same fashion as the CW side tone.
