R.J., you said this: "The only failure point that I have found is that if you are recording and you hit the 'pause' button, you can still hear audio without recording"
I looked at the pictures on Amazon and it looks like the Power button also functions as a hold button. I believe that locks out all the other buttons. I always use that on my Olympus so I suggest you try it and see if it blocks you from accidentally pausing the recording.
This recorder looks like a decent replacement of my Olympus. The Olympus recorded in WAV though which is nice for making videos and it was also chargeable via USB. Someone said this one doesn't have that ability.
I think I'll get one from Best Buy tomorrow.

I second the Sony ICD-PX370. Got mine locally at Bust Buy and I have had very good luck with it. The good thing is that you cannot hear any audio in the earphones unless the unit is recording. The limits the chances of not getting the pass recorded. The only failure point that I have found is that if you are recording and you hit the 'pause' button, you can still hear audio without recording. So watch out for that. I have made hundreds of passes in the last year and never lost any audio yet.
Good Luck. R.J. WY7AA

I use a Sony ICD-PX370 with line-in connected to a splitter on the earphone jack. It does a really good job of recording, the batteries last a long time (not rechargeable though), and you can download the file and listen elsewhere.

What method of recording do you all use for QSOs? I'm setting up my fixed base station and know from my handheld/Arrow days that I cannot operate, talk, and write all at the same time with any accuracy.
