Released in the mid-2000s and now discontinued, it won industry accolades like the 2005 Radio World Cool Stuff Award for packing full-sized field recorder features into a compact layout. Since it records directly to solid-state media rather than tape or discs, it is highly shock-resistant with no moving parts Key Specifications & Features • Storage Media: Uses standard Compact Flash (CF) cards or Microdrives.
