It's not a terribly onerous requirement,  fortunately. About all you need is an audio cable from the XCVR Line Out.to the sound card on your logging computer

I would need some education and I suppose some sort of recording device (another computer?).  I'd hate to have to take another computer on my trips.  I suppose recording would be different depending on the rig used.  And I wonder about RFI to the recording device.

I do notice that the rule applies to "any entrant" and not just expected high scorers.  If it means that the recording can be requested prior to the contest (not practical since the committee won't know definitely whom they want to record), I'd have no problem with that.
