I grew up in Princeton, New Jersey, about half-way between Phila and New York. Only OK FM reception, but I never had the benefit of an outside antenna. I went to high school in southern New Hampshire, about 50 miles from Boston. This is when I recorded some BSO broadcast stereo off of two FM stations.

Stereo LPs were hopeless in the 1960's with any equipment that I could afford. It wasn't until laser cut styli came out that I considered the distortion acceptable. Vacuum hold down on my SOTA turntable solved the warp problem and a VPI record cleaning machine solved the surface noise problem.
