Charles Apgar, W2MN recorded Sayville, NY radio, WSL on an Edison wax cylinder recorder. Most of the cylinders were lost they had been on display at NBC radio in NYC.

Good Morning:



If my memory serves me correctly I remember reading something of the court case over WSL during World War I. In that the so called experts stated they did not know of a devise that could record radio signals. Maybe if you have access to that it will indicate fake because it was four or five years after Titanic. Years ago I interviewed some of the old operators that were operating around then. I find it hard to believe there was a recording and the Cape Race VCE logs on Titanic were lost in the fire when the station burned in 1919.



Hope this helps.

The narrator isn't me. There was a W5 callsign given at the end, that man was born in 1920, he has an amazing voice for a man that old.  Most likely the last letter of his call got cut off.



I agree with your remarks, they spent a lot of time on a fake recording, I think.

    Now, having listened again to the entire thing with
introduction I find some of what I wanted is addressed
particularly the origin of the recording.
    Is the narrator you David? If so I wish I had been a little
more gentle in my remarks. Also, if its you, it makes my
judgement more toward the recording being genuine because I know
you are a historian and generally pretty reliabl
