I have a PX-470, rather than the model linked.  It creates one big file from 
the time you start recording to the time it stops

I've only used it "in anger" once, and haven't had a need to go hunting 
individual QSO's, but I imagine that finding a particular QSO would look 
something like this:

0. Use an mp3/media player that displays timestamps of where you are in the 
recording.

1. Find your first QSO, noting time in log and timestamp in recording.

2. Find the desired QSO in the log, and subtract the time of that contact from 
the time of the first QSO.

3. Add the difference to the timestamp of the first QSO in the recording, and 
drag the playback slider to about the indicated point.

The gadget itself worked well, aside from my not having used it enough before 
the contest in question.  An extra button push is required to really start it 
recording...and it was about an hour into the contest before I glanced down and 
noticed the recorder wasn't recording.

The Sony looks like it is a nice recorder. Does it create one huge 48 hour file 
or multiple smaller files?  How do you locate a particular QSO or time frame if 
needed.

And also this teeny recorder:
Sony ICD UX 533 from Best Buy...I think it was $50 or so on sale ~ 2 years ago.
