Can you think of anything you changed at or around that time? Windows updates installed, device drivers updated, new deviced connected, new software installed...? As I mentioned earlier, when recordings are unplayable, it's often because the recording is corrupted due to poor signal strength/quality at the time of the recording. Have you had bad weather recently? If yes, have you checked the state of your antenna/aerial? [/QUOTE]
