I found another confusing one. This one's actually from Swingin' Pig! Let me know if a sample is necessary. Thanks!

Looks like plain ol' FM to me so far (stereo pilot tone at 19kHz, ~15kHz cutoff)


(Also, please do consider to save your images as PNG instead of BMP files ;))

yeah, just looks like a normal fm lossless-sourced

I'm hosting the files on my own website, and just linking them in for viewing. So I don't think that I'm wasting any extra TTD server space. Actually, I thought that by doing this, that I wouldn't be using any TTD server space at all. If I am, that is not the intent.

I asked because it sounds lossy to me, and because many of the versions that are in circulation are of .mp3 origin.

I seeded this back in September over on DIME, right after I received this from someone who claimed to have the original silver disks. But I wanted to be 100% sure, I think that's important when deciding lossy/lossless.

But this was never an FM broadcast, only a TV broadcast. :hmm:

FM and TV look similar because they both have the "red stripe" (aka carrier).

I got a good gut feeling about this one, but if you're feeling at all paranoid about it feel free to post up a yousendit.com link to a 10-20 second sample so we can give it a listen and a closer look.

No, I guess I'm satisfied. A sample isn't necessary
