Henry:

Nope. The problem there is that there is no way to get the sound from the recorder to the Mac in a format iListen will recognize.

For a list of recorders we will support, please see the following article in our Knowledgebase:

What Digital Voice Recorders Are Supported for Use with iListen?
http://macspeech.crmhelp.net/index.php?_a=knowledgebase&_j=questiondetails&_i=8

While others *might* work, we can't provide technical support in getting them to work since we have no experience with them. So if you feel up to a challenge, you are free to try the VN 120PC, but we have no way to help you a). set up a profile with that device to get the best accuracy; b). transfer the recordings to your Mac; c). convert the transferred files into a format iListen understands.
