All right--so I haven't flipped the switch to "off". Phil Shaphard of Moody Audio was kind enough to send photos, and Dave Daily of The Ranger Bill Club didn't have space on his site to publish them. So I've posted those photos here. Since I really don't have much to add these days, Dave will simply link to the photos.

If you haven't noticed, all links to Ranger Bill episodes are gone. I even contacted Archive.org to remove all the episodes I uploaded per the copyright restrictions of MBN. However, you can now purchase the episodes from moodyaudio.com, and I think the price is pretty reasonable. Looks like you get 50 episodes on a CD in MP3 format for $29, or you can buy one episode at a time for download at $1.95 each (the $29 deal is far better--only 58 cents an episode that way).

Mr. Shaphard also tells me that we may see Sailor Sam on Moody Audio in the near future. I'm looking forward to seeing these episodes.

If you notice, there are only about 200 episodes listed on Moody Audio, and Dave and I have identified 217 episodes as having been aired. In time, I plan to purchase these episodes (nothing like having copies from the original master tapes) and identify which episodes are missing from Moody Audio. I'll let Dave Daily know which these are, and I'll try to find reasons why Moody does not have them available, although Mr. Shaphard did provide possible explanations (though not specifics--I don't think he was really certain himself). It may become apparent to me once I've identified which episodes are missing.

Looking at the list on Moody Audio, it looks like the first Ranger Bill episode may be one of the missing episodes.

I asked Mr. Shaphard about the episode we nicknamed "The Ghost Organ", but he couldn't link it to one of the existing episodes. Maybe I'll have better luck once I purchase all the episodes. Just purchased CD #1, so I'll be getting started on it shortly.

Finally, Dave and I are trying to talk Mr. Shaphard into scanning in the scripts to the episodes so that we can publish them for all to see. They are in a fragile state, so we may be lucky to only see a page or two from them, but it sounds like they have the scripts to nearly all episodes.
