I am seeking an inexpensive (ha, ha) portable recorder that can be used for
a silver distance badge. All opinions welcomed.
If you plan your flight to land at another airport you only need a barograph and witnesses at your landing location. Something like a Replogle is
adequate for that, and very cheap nowadays.

According to the minutes of the 2014 IGC Plenary, deleting stand-alone barographs passed as a year 1 proposal, and will be voted on next year, for inclusion in 2016 Sporting Code. Don't invest too much in a Replogle lest you have an expensive paperweight. I think the "FlywithCE" position recorder is the answer up to Gold Badges - until everyone has a PowerFLARM, good up to Diamonds. If your resources are greater, the Nano is very nice and reliable too.

It might fail in the Year 2 vote - but I doubt it.
