We already have a Topfield (Swim's) and a Thomson (was mine) - I get

and 'chase play' navigation is hopeless, so I lost the Tommy under the
heading 'use it or lose it!

I'm not quite sure what you mean by 'chase play' - is that making up some
form of play list so it will chunter out more than one pre-recorded prog?
But have you checked if there is any software available to do what you
want? Mine records radio fine - or at least has on trial. I normally use
the PC for this as I'm more likely to listen to them in that area.

I was hoping someone had one and could tell me what the recorded files
were - with a 300 Gig hard disk in it it would be possible to load it up
with every damn thing that looked anything like a possible over a period
of time, then pop it/swap it out and hook it straight up to the PC for
processing as and when....

Are you sure the files on its HD can be read direct by your PC? Just
wondering...

I can feel and 'online purchase' coming on....

Done! Now, we'll see....
