Will do.  I am hopping on an airplane right now, but will get back
home Friday night.  I'll turn off the real-time flagging at that time
and will let you know on, say, Monday, whether any of the weekend's
recordings get corrupted.  Looks like there will be a lot of
recordings this weekend (around 15 or so), so this should give us a
good indication.
