While doing some research I found another version of this performance.
That was sourced from an unofficial release on vinyl which has now been converted to a silver CD.

This is from my master "Off the Air" tape recording and has never been shared before.


Performed balance and volume adjustments as required.
Converted to 16-44 for CD burning archivists.

Loved the sound of this Phillips tuner.
Punchy and excellent stereo separation so no eq needed.

Frequency analysis reveals the standard FM broadcast roll off including a spur at 15.734 kHz.
This was a by-product of the recording equipment and would not be audible to most people.
A narrow band notch filter was applied to reduce the amplitude so it is now inaudible to young and old ears.


For historical reference only and not for resale or any commercial uses.
