This is the same broadcast source as used for the MegaDisc, Four Beat Sounds and Legendary Collectors'
Series bootleg releases and may be the same recording. The differences are mainly in file splitting, but
the LCS version has been compressed.

I prefer this version as it was recorded continuously on long-playing digital audio tape and has no cuts
as exhibited in some of the bootlegs. I have done my usual tinkering, though this was my second pass at
this recording as I have seeded it previously. I have tidied up a few things, but it has not changed much. I was hoping to patch a one-second long series of static bursts at 8:20-21 of track 3, but all sources exhibit the same minor reception flaws. Patches may be available from the original 1983 broadcast of this date...

Editing:
- balanced: right channel -0.30 dB, plus local adjustments
- repaired clicks, pops and static
- gain normalized and retracked
- pitch checked by flambay
