Re: [ARSCLIST] Mutual network transcriptions

Yes John,  it is quite easy to tell the difference.  The show has a 
"thinner" sound than those that precede or follow it.  Still, most 
listeners, I doubt, would notice the difference without the ability to 
A/B it directly with another show.  However, if you listen to most of 
the recordings of OTR by the various vendors of vintage radio, my 
recording seems like HiFi in comparison.
