[arm-allstar] Recording Node Audio

[Kevin Davis]

You would need to make a few changes.   I save my files to /mnt/NAS/ which
is a mount point for my local NAS. That would need to be replaced with your
desired save location.  You would also need to create the two rpt.conf
files, rpt.conf_507412_archive_off and rpt.conf_507412_archive_on, which
the script copies in.   There are other ways to accomplish this, but this
is the route I went for this.

Beyond that, the cron entries are:
# Start/Stop Archiving of 507412 for Monday Linux net
10 20 * * 1 /usr/local/sbin/toggle_archive_507412.sh 1
15 21 * * 1 /usr/local/sbin/toggle_archive_507412.sh 0 LinuxNet

You would replace LinuxNet with whatever folder you want the net archived
to.  I have multiple nets I archive and each goes under its own folder.

ie.
/mnt/NAS/LinuxNet
/mnt/NAS/ARES
etc.
