Notes from Mike Buyers:
All songs except Hell in a Bucket recorded in dbx 1. Hell was in Dolby C. The eq is quite dry, but the frequency response is great, needs a 10 band. I did a few shows with this home deck which came with dbx 1 noise reduction built in. I removed the power supply and installed it in a separate enclosure with a 5 pin DIN plug. I boxed up two separate 12 volt NiCads and a 3 volt supply to power up the unit and the original power supply did the recharge when the deck did not need to be powered up. It made it through 2 hours of recording as fellow tapers were placing bets on when it would die.
