Re: Who Taped the Charts????
I would spend most Sunday evenings (1980-1983) listening to the chart show, with a blank C90 ready to go!
@battyrat -apparently the DJs deliberately spoke over the tracks to discourage pirating.
Its also easy to forget that this was the only Radio 1 show broadcast on FM in stereo - for the rest of the week we had to listen to MW, where every song came mixed with a spooky backing track of hisses, crackles and whistles!
