[78-L] the 'deadest' consumer audio formats?

[Royal Pemberton]

Actually the mono cartridges are two track, one for audio, the other for
control (cue tones).  Stereo carts are three track, two for audio, one for
control.  The design came from the old Fidelipac/Mad Man Muntz 4 track
cartridges in the 1960s.
