Editing notes:

* A 1-second broadcast dropout at 1:08 into Track 2 was repaired with a 2.7-second splice from a similar passage;
* A 1.8-second broadcast dropout and glitch at 22 seconds into Track 3 was repaired with a 7.6-second splice from a similar passage that was crossfaded in;
* More glitchiness occurred about 35 seconds into Track 3 that also lasted a little more than a second. These glitches were repaired with a 3-second splice from a similar passage;
* At 5:25 into Track 4, after the music, there were 27 seconds of dead air followed by 44 seconds of station IDs and announcements. I removed this passage, added about a second of silence and added fades as needed;
* In Track 6 at about 6:15 into the track, just after the song ended there was another station ID, this one about 64 seconds in duration. Again, I removed the section, added a bit of silence between tracks and added fades;
* In Track 8 at 4:14, there was yet another station id, this one about 14 seconds. I removed the section and added a crossfade.
* At about 16 seconds into Track 10, there were a couple of tiny glitches over about a second that I removed;
* About 3 seconds into Track 12, there was a dropout of about 0.16 seconds. It was repaired with a 0.33-second splice from a nearby passage;
* At 3:23 into Track 12 there was a 12-second station ID that I removed;
* A -45db notch filter was used to remove the 19kHz FM pilot tone; and
* The entire recording was normalized by 1.33 db then the left channel was boosted another 0.4 db, leaving about 0.10 db head room.
