[SurroundSound] Re: The Who - 1974 Quad radio broadcast

romanotrax has said this one is on his list - not sure whether he has
another source or not.

> Hey guys,  thought you might be interested to know that I have been intermittently doing some r&d on this broadcast over the last year.   I'm pretty sure I have played around with this particular source, and it does seem to be SQ.  However, I found that the transfer is a little frustrating.  One side of the mix sounded kind of brittle and trebly, while the other side was pretty dark and undistorted.  The quad spread is a little subtle, although it did seem to add some of the sound bouncing off the back walls of the Capital Center in the back speakers.
