[Bradford] BCB Radio IT Stuff - Downloading

The web site from which past BCB Radio programmes can be streamed does not
allow for downloading. Just another crazy thing about the way things are
done.
So, if you do want to download then simply go to the URL below and find the
date you are looking for.
Choose a time of ~1 hour the start time of the broadcast. For example:
IT Stuff starts at 18:00 on 04 April 2013. So choose 18:59. That is when
the last hour is stacked.
So you'll get IT Stuff + another half hour. I have downloaded just the
programme before but either something has changed or I've forgotten how I
did it. The whole whole podcast thing on BCB is a mess and the sound
quality of the broadcasts is dire because, instead of leaving the audio as
it is, or just lifting/lowering the volume as required they bring
everything up to a similar level so it sounds compressed to hell. I've
heard far better quality on Medium Wave.
I'm hoping that one of the hosts of the latest show remembered to tell them
not to muck with the audio.
