[IRCA] Recording TOH ID's using Elad Software



I'm a new user of my Elad FDM-S2, and am just learning it's finer
points. I'd like to use it to record Top of the Hour (TOH) ID's on
medium wave stations here in the US. My desire is to record the I/Q
files, and review these recordings later.

I've been able to do this successfully using the record scheduler built
into the software, but have not been able to figure out a way to set it
up so that recordings will be made overnight, night after night, without
having to reset the data parameter. This is using the stock Elad
software that ships with the SDR.

Should I be using another software with the SDR for this point? Is there
something I'm missing with the scheduler that would allow this to happen
automatically?

Also, the scheduler defaults to record in CW mode at 7,040,000 Mhz, and
I can't seem to change that. This means I have to change both the mode
and frequency for each new event. Time consuming. Any way to change that
default to USB or LSB in the middle of the AM band?

It looks like there may be a way to set mode and frequency using the #_ sign in the naming convention? Can't make heads or tails of it, and the manual isn't much help either. The recording function seems to be
one of the few weak links in an otherwise world-class receiver.

Grateful for the advice.
