Re: [ARSCLIST] National Recording Preservation Board (NRPB) Study
Dear Bob,
I'm afraid I'm in London, away from my collection at home; but I do
have a BBC Archive disc (mastered and pressed by British Homophone) in
which the symptoms are like those allegedly obtained from welding
Blattnerphone steel tape. (A metallic clang at each edit point - the
machine used DC bias).
If this disc was used for a BBC Records compilation LP, that would
qualify as a commercially-issued recording.

Hello All !
Just a thought, but was the Blattnerphone ever used to master a
commercially issued recording ? If so , what is it ?
Thanks !
