General Radio Discussion / Radio Comedy Club International - Recording Request

« on: April 05, 2015, 2303 UTC »

I have a request from anyone who might be of help. During the 1980's I recorded 38 programs of RCCI, and can no longer find the original cassettes of the programs through several moves of addresses. Last seen about 14 years ago...The only recording I have found is courtesy of KiloKat7, with the link below. The tapes were made during 1985 to 1989 and as I recall, many copies of the programs were sent out along with QSLs. All were under 30 minutes (length of the cassettes used) and were relayed by other stations.

Does anyone have an MP3 copy or cassette copy that can be converted to an MP3 of one of the programs? Strangely this would not be for me but rather for my two grandsons, who currently don't know the one side of grandpa and his past. I'm thankful that Tim had the forethought to do an off the air recording.

Any help appreciated. TIA   ...Steve
