Default What is the CC area in memos for?

The slowest speed was 16 2/3, and it was used for what were then called
"talking books" (for the blind). The speed was too slow for high-fidelity
music reproduction but adequate for the spoken word (in the same way that
telephone sound quality in those days was just adequate for
comprehension).


And the fastest wasn't 78 - it was 80!
Yes, we had a record that played at speed 80 AND we had a "radiogram" that
would play at speed 80...
