Coming from one of the men with the reknown "Golden Ears" that's a good
endorsement. I am curious if there is a WAV file sample of this, anywhere? I'd
like to give it a listen.

I remember that Tom Ray had posted some files of the digital signal coming
from WOR a while ago, back when they were working out some codec issues.
Something like this for the FM digital streams would be great.
