Thanks Rob, that effectively clears up that mystery.

That is a bug in the LAME encoder. You won't be able to send those files to the Book Port, unless you convert them with another program first. The version of LAME we use crashes with when the source file has an 8000 Hz sample rate. If it wasn't for these recorders, noone would have found this one.
