Recorded: 24/26 October 1947. From Myto CD 98.H004 (Internet Archive: downloaded for My interest!).
Bass Cut - 12dB/8ve @ 25Hz - Treble cut above 8kHz (Mucho Bass/Upper Treble hash + FM Tuner 19kHz signal). <1.2 dB treble boost @ 6kHz.
Likely the 1980's BBC Radio 3 TX (which I listened-to: the crash of instruments at the end deleted by Myto). Sounds OK - bought the 1979 RCA (RL42821) which has indifferent transfers of Ariadne/Elektra (ex-EMI).
