Thanks for sharing - I can't believe how fascinating I have found them!
Most of my links are to OneDrive. However, OneDrive does impose a download limit and when this is reached displays a message that the files are deleted or have expired. Leave it a while and try again later.

Thanks so much! I was hoping for more of these but was never sure how to articulate what to ask for...
My opinions are my own, but, my dog tends to agree with everything I say.

I am in need of some help here. I take the link into a new window, replace the xx with tt, but it does not work for me. When I try to activate it, I end up at a MEGA site where they ask for a decryption key.
thanks in advance!

Make sure you've got the complete link, paste then swap the x and t's. OK for me on Android: new window, app or Web prompt, used app, all successful.

Thanks a lot - for the radio fragments and for the help!
My problem, now solved, was that I made a copy-paste to move the link to the new window, therefore I did not get everything in the link (my set up apparently makes some abbreviation of the long link, which it shows by a few dots). By instead right-clicking I get an automatic transfer of the whole link and after exchanging the xx, it works fine.

Yes, long links are automatically abbreviated and you need to right click and 'copy link'.

If people are going to use the hxxp trick then it would be better to embed the url in code like so:

Code: Select all

Then no need to use hxxp and it won't appear as a hyperlink.

To code command is the two chevrons pointing away from each other.

Just want to add my thanks for these terrific uploads here. I only just signed up for the forum and this old BBC radio stuff is something I've dreamed of finding and hearing for years. I can't wait to get my headphones on a drift away to this stuff.

Brilliant.
