     This listing is complete as of 2/14/02. I have not had a chance to listen to all of the programs listed herein. If you encounter any problems with any program, let me know and I will make it right with you. It is important to me that I send a quality product to those I trade with. I will be instituting a grading system shortly and will include those codes after the episode title. Grades will be as follows.

<bs>  bassy audio, excessive lows
<ccc>  closing credits clipped/missing
<cs>  recorded from commercial radio station, may contain host v/o
<ct>   cue tones (usually from a YUSA audio subcarrier recording)
<dst>  distorted
<e>   show is edited
<h>   noticeable tape hiss
<i>   incomplete, musical numbers, etc. cut
<la>  low audio, source copy recorded at low level
<mf>  muffled sound, must strain to hear
<mt>  taken from original master tape
<om>  over-modulated, some distortion
<occ>  opening credits clipped/missing
<osn>  occasional above average surface noise
<po>  partial open
<rf>  runs a little fast
<rs>  runs a little slow
<sh>  shrill sound, has lost most low and mid range
<sk>  original disc occasionally skips
<sn>  above average surface noise throughout
<st>  static (either videotape mis-tracking or over-the-air copy)
<td>  taken from original transcription disc
<vf>  volume flux
<xt>  cross talk
<78td>  taken from 78 rpm transcription discs, frequent gaps

     If anyone knows of, or has any suggestions as to grades I may have forgotten, please contact me.
