The Hour 25 shows may not be the best example to use.

The sound was doctored in playback, because I was looking to get the optimum reproduction and on some of those shows, playback was in mono, by either using a mono only deck or by folding the stereo channels into a single monaural source. And in some instances, I ran the signal through a 25 year old equalizer. (And I have no longer have any idea which Hour 25 shows were transferred in mono or stereo.)

Especially since I couldn't discern any stereo seperation in the interview portions of those broadcasts, the many of the original stereo cassettes were transferred to cdr in mono.
