Hi! Thank you for posting!

I have a question about copyright on broadcast transmission. I've used my own recorded samples of scanning through radio and there are some mix of less that 1 second of music tracks, some news etc.

I read the laws and I think that such content is protected by copyright laws. Could. you please tell me how you cleaned up your samples, where to get the permission?

Today as technology evolves. These sounds are hard to listen to again. with online radio on https://emisorasderadioonline.es/ we never have these tones because its live stream quality is extremely stable
