That is the nice version. I don't know what the deal
is. Even though I work at WKDK, I may run over there
with a LARGE bottle of alcohol and Q tips and see if
dirty heads are the problem. If they are worn past the
gap I guess there is no hope, unless it's reel to
reel. There still are some parts for those.   Some of
the audio CAN sound OK, but what we heard was 100% and
totally unlistenable. I could not understand one word
that was said. And yes, I know Cornell. I may have to
see what the problem is. They don't even SHOW in the
ratings usually.   I don't understand how he keeps the
station on the air, really.  

I have heard hundreds of stations and this classifies
as the worst I have ever heard.
