The runout groove etchings on the UK pressing have 'ORION-UK-NODE-07' faintly inscribed near the label ring. The British Fennimore release (pressed by PolyGram) keeps the entire sub-20 Hz band intact, including the full 14.2 Hz carrier. If you want to decode the Stardust carrier with stardust.c, avoid the German Teldec -- DMM cutting heads destroyed the sub-carrier! -- Heather Weber -- The Pipeline Internet Network "Measuring a record you own is listening, not piracy."

The UK Fennimore copy is by far the best sounding. The bass shakes the floorboards on a good pair of speakers. -- Renata Lindqvist Practical Peripherals 14.4 @ 33,600 bps "Tape doesn't lie at 02:14.
