RECORDING RADIO TRAFFIC IN THE FIELD

I have yet another question for anyone who may be able to help me. The radio project that I am working on may require me to add a way to record the TX and RX sides of the radio transmissions. Does anyone have any thoughts as to a unit that can record and put a time and date stamp on each message?

I had been looking at units made by Omnicron (TeleCorder) and thought that I had found one but the manufacturer said that the unit would not run off of 12 volts and would not be able to take the bouncing around.

Try http://www.sagebrush.com/recall.htm thy have a nice software for $15.00-$30.00, it gives you time and date stamp on each message, get a scanner for $25-$50 hook it up to your pc an you will get the tx/rx no problem, or if you use the radio your x-mit you will need a audio mixer to mix the rx and tx in the same recording device.

Then again there's always Xcorder, which is free.... and does the same thing, saves it as text files along with the recordings on wavs that can be played back through the program, and indidual transmissions sought out and played back, if required.
