Mike ;
  It sounds quite good, given that the undoubtable limitations of the camera microphone and the computer speakers I am listening to. It's sort of odd that they don't play more 1930s and 40s music on the AM broadcast band, much as I like that stuff it's a complete waste of bandwidth to play it over FM, and it's all mono anyhow.
Regards
Arran
