Bob Jawer
March 16, 2005
In the early nineties, The Broadcast Pioneers of Philadelphia, now an independent entity, was part of the national organization of Broadcast Pioneers, which disbanded in 1996. The nationwide group had an oral history project and our chapter participated. We recorded audio interviews with some of our members. While copies went to the national organization, we retained the original masters and a first generation dub.
One person we interviewed was Broadcast Pioneers member Bob Jawer. Former Broadcast Pioneers President Marguerite Farley did the interviews and the one with Bob was recorded on Wednesday, September 5, 1991.
On this particular interview, the voice of Marguerite Farley is slightly distorted. It is that way on the master and the dub. We have cleaned it and the distortion is less, but still present. There is nothing more we can do at the present time.
The interview has been encoded so that the audio rolls. For example, this 90 minute long interview is divided into 6 segments. This is done for faster loading. When one segment is finished, the next segment will start automatically. For DSL and Cable users, this will be almost instantaneous. For dial-up users, each segment may buffer for a moment before playing. This is normal.
