Notes: This recording was originally on tape, I made it in 1993. I don't remember which month. It was from Studio Aperto, the Italian program of Swiss Radio International, which airs on Sunday at 14 CET. They used to read listeners' letters and create mini-games. This was the first time they read one of my letters.

Swiss Radio International: Circa April 26, 1968

Many thanks to SRAA contributor, Bob Purse, curator of the excellent Inches Per Second audio archive and blog. Bob kindly shares the following recording originally made on reel to reel tape. All of Bob’s recordings are lost and found sound, so the only information he has for each recording are the notes included on tape labels and boxes. If you can identify the date or any other information about this recording, please comment.

Bob notes the following about this found piece:

This [recording is] from the spring of 1968. [It] is a recording of broadcasts from Switzerland. The sound quality goes in and out here - it's never great, which is often the case with these shortwave recordings, but it's almost all listenable.
