Static stops at about 3 1/2 min.

[@deborahsbackwoodsstudio1369]

Reminds me of all the times there was something on the radio and had to almost hold the knob to keep the station clear

[@violetfemme411]

Great episode..static was a bit annoying but couldn't ruin the awesomeness of Msr Kramer!

[@williamcornwell6823]

That isn't static, it's over driven (too loud) an input to the recorder and possibly poor tuning of the radio.

[@williamnorton9547]

It's so irritating when an episode of an old time radio show has PLENTY of static.

Old-Timey Charm :)

@@ChillySunshine no doubt. Happened when driving and listening to it. Remember it well

That's a good dad!

Static gave it a nostalgic feel. ❤

[@melanieliles2923]

The picture changing at the end of the story was awesome☺

Static was so annoying ... never heard that b4 in a CBSMT episode.

I thought my headphones were bolloxed

[@gregorycapp6688]

The first 3 1/2 minutes are full of static but the show clears up and has very good sound quality although periodic brief moments of static. An excellent episode with the excellent acting of Mandel Kramer a.k.a. The last Johnny dollar. Enjoy 30 June 2020 Fresno California

I can just see those vu meters pegging the red!

First world problem static on the internet during an old time radio show🙄 . Static was when I was a kid in my grandparents basement with an AM transistor radio listening to these programs.

Thanks Chilly!!

[@ChillySunshine]

You're welcome Trina.

[@tomscorner3838]

listened for about 3 minutes and turned it off due to the static. Not good.

[@ChillySunshine]

Static clears up a lot after 4 minutes, should have hung in there longer.

[@bentley19581]

OK I'll hang in there - thanks Chilly - I know these are OLD recordings and I always thank you for preserving them. You make RUclips worthwhile. As I have said before: ChillySunshine you're the GOODS!!

[@jackiedunn7148]

Too much static

[@smoigida]

The static is not nearly as annoying as Evie Justers voice, she goes from sounding like a 6 year old one minute to sounding like an 80 year old man the next, creepy!

[@shoshana-xs4cm]

Impossibly crackly audio 🥴

[@sthon99]

Bad audio on this one

[@justgottadoit2]

Shit audio
