Thanks to both of you for the help getting me started.

I am now in the process of seeing if I can figure out just what this alsamixer 
does and how it does it.  In umpteen years I've messed with once, I think and 
that was so easy I didn't have to know what I was doing.

i assume that somehow I tell arecord where to put the recorded sound and a 
file name.  I'll get to that eventually.  When I am thoroughly confused, I'll 
post another plea.

Cheers
