  Data Logging
Data logging is used to capture an arbitrary amount of S Meter data and save it in a file.
When the program is running, the S Meter data is always being collected from the radio at a rate of 20 samples per second.
In this case, logged data is never written to the file at a rate greater than one record per second, and the amount of data written is a single line of text.
