  • Before Terrabyte hard drives and Broadband I stored a number of programmes at 64kbps. Some recordings I found were encoded at 48kbps.

    Rather than deprive people of the chance to hear them I intend posting some, and would ask that if anyone has a better quality recording; to please post a link and I will amend the posting details and give credit to the poster.
