The good news is that for CQ WW RTTY, you're probably already feeding the audio you hear to a computer for decoding.  

There are plenty of apps out there that will record incoming audio to an mp3 file.   The big concern is making sure that you have enough disk space and system resources to handle the job, and if you're doing SO2R with a single computer, that the app can capture/store stereo sound.

I use Voicemeeter on my shack PC for a number of audio mixing/routing purposes, and it has an integrated audio-record function.  However, that tool is probably overkill.  :)

really?
B. Audio Recordings: Any single operator entrant (see V.A.1) competing for a top five finish at the (a) World, (b) Continent, or (c) USA levels, including Classic Overlay, must record the transmitted and received audio as heard by the operator for the duration of the contest operation. The recording must be in a common format (e.g., mp3) and should include the audio to each ear as a separate channel. The recording must be a continuous recording (not a recording of individual QSOs). Time “off the air” (when not transmitting or receiving) does not have to recorded. The recording may be requested by the Committee within 90 days after the log deadline to help adjudicate the log. The recording files must be provided by the entrant within 5 days of the request.
