Autonomous Recording of Desert Birds

Davide-NYC:
Get an iRiver H1xx and put a clock in it. It works like a charm. No patching necessary, but you will have to compile the build yourself.

I have used the Iriver H320 for autonomous recording of owls. These units are probably your best bet as far as jukeboxes are concerned. About the longest I could get the recorders to last was 16 days, then I would download the data and start them up again. I recorded in Mono and used the Wavpack format to save on hard drive space. I did not use the trigger function, instead I used the countdown timer patch and set each unit to record every night from 6 pm to 6 am. With a little work it may be possible to use this countdown timer and the trigger function simultaneously. That would save you tremendously on hard drive space. Another benefit of the H320 is that each file has a time stamp. If you want a larger hard drive buy the H340 and replace the drive with a 60 or 80 GB hard drive. This will give you more time before needing to download your data. You will probably need to get a used Iriver since this model has been discontinued and they can be difficult to find. Try Ebay.

Good Luck, Cameron
