Agreed!  I was referring only to call outs which is what the original
post was about, *not* call in situations.  And I only mentioned the
strange Indiana law (an apparent law since I'm not a lawyer) for
discussion and was not meant to set off alarm bells.  If 2 lawyers that
I trust have told me it's OK to record phone conversations there must be
something there though I am still suspicious of that apparent law.  But
it's off topic a bit anyway since it does not apply to any radio
situation.
