Thank you very much, Dane, for this information.  I have some additional 
questions:

1. Can I just type Command-R a second time to stop the recording?

2. Is a recording automatically stopped when the Skype session is intentionally 
terminated?

3.  I guess I am also wondering if Audio Hijack is always set to automatically 
record when it is launched.  I am wondering this since you said to let it 
automatically record all the time and if this is the case, then why the   need 
for the Command-R?

4.  Lastly, will Audio Hijack work with the latest version of Skype?

I always appreciate your insightful help.  Thank you!

Best regards,

Mike
