I also intend to use it as Barry says. I would also like to have a record
of some of the more enjoyable/lighter moments. Also people always ask me
questions about packet pileups, "How do I sound down there," etc.
I agree that listening to the full 48 hours for entertainment or log
sanitization would be a colossal bore.

Gil,
After recording, if you right-click on any callsign in the log, it brings
up a submenu including "play audio snippet." It will play the
individual QSO. I recorded last year's CQWW CW. I found it helpful
after getting my UBN file back. I went to listen to the QSOs of my
busted calls. I learned from that (and part of what I learned is that
log checking isn't perfect).
