    I love Lucy radio show was only an audition taken from the TV
    show.  It never aired.
    I was told this by several people who were connected with the TV show.

    No, you are correct, charlie. "I Love Lucy" was never a radio series.
    As you said, Desi made a feeble attempt at it by using a television
    soundtrack, and adding commentary where only visuals existed. It was
    pretty awful. It's no wonder it didn't sell.
