  • Sound Quality??

    I used to like your show even though the sound quality is terrible. Different sound quality and volume levels with different announcers. Please standardize your recording equipment. I could live with it until you decided to crank the volume of your ads. I have the volume turned way up to hear the weakest announcer then the ad comes on an blasts me away. I’m done thanks.
