    Subject:  Empire Builders dates

    Hi Gang,

    	I was aware of the 11-10-30 date and of course, I show the 12-1-30 date
    in my Log.  But the 11-30-30 date has to be bogus as the program was
    always aired on Monday, not Sunday.

    	When I first received these recordings some 30 years ago, the
    "Armistice Day Reunion" program had a date of 11-10-30 printed on it.
    That date, however, was crossed off and a date of 12-1-30 handwritten in
    it's place.  I inquired from the source of the recordings about this
    discrepancy. I was told the program had been scheduled to Air on 11-10,
    but due to technical problems, it never went out.  The producers thought
    so much of the story, they decided to go ahead and air it in place of
    the 12-1 scheduled program.

    	Whether any of this is true or not, I have no idea.  None of the
    research I've done shed's any light on the subject.  But based on what
    meager facts I do have, I plan to leave it's date as 12-1-30 until such
    time as someone can verify the correct date one way or another.

    	I hope this doesn't confuse the matter even more :-)

    Subject:  Thak you, Michael

    My thanks to Michael Biel for his indepth information on the rotation and
    surface speed of recorded discs.
    Though I have transferred literally thousands of radio shows directly off
    network ETs and some 78s, I am not an engineer. So my understqanding of the
    various technical aspects of recording are based on experience, information
    from other sources more in the "know" than I, and finally, what I have
    deduced from trial and error.
    Thus, I applaud Michael for coming forth and giving more accurate information
    than I could have done.

    Thank you, Michael!
