Query on crackpot scheme for recording audio with extended bandwidth

"What you hear on the air is less quality than a 192K mp3 "

I would have to disagree with that statement. On what do you base this?

It's been around 15 years since I read this but my first MP3 recorder (at the time I didn't have a PC so recording analog audio was the only way I'd have MP3s) was a Pogo Products radio your way LX and it was basically the radio equivalent of a DVR. IIRC the manual and C Crane who I bought it from (they later made a CC radio version of it that I wish I had bought) recommended 64Kbps or 128Kbps for FM radio but didn't give much justification...
