SB > BBC Radio 2 FM broadcast >
unknown tuner > Aiwa MD-250 > TDK SA-C90 cassette master >
Cassette playback on Pioneer CT-S550S with azimuth correction >
Sony JE530 A/D (+4.5db) (44.1k) > Nomad JB3 > .wav > Adobe Audition > .wav >
CDWAV > FLAC frontend > .flac files

Note: The Sony JE530 is a minidisc recorder, however
a pure digital output is available when using it as a
"passthrough" device. Therefore, despite the presence
of a minidisc device in this lineage there is no MD/
ATRAC compression.

Although the tape is marked as having been recorded with Dolby B,
I used no noise reduction on playback, because (to my middle aged ears) the high
frequency seemed very muted anyway.

prior to Paul Jones' chatter at the end of each track.
