What about calling the station you're listening to, and asking them to put in the delay for game broadcasts? They already have the hardware if they have any sort of live phone in show, and you could use the argument that this would get them more listeners since they'd then be in sync with the video telecasts of their TV competitors. And a commercial music/guitar effects processor is probably the quickest solution to getting a variable delay. What's your time worth? The idea of flip flopping a pair of ICD recording devices sounds like a cheap/code-free solution.

It exists because broadcasters are afraid of the huge fines they would get from the FCC if any 'bad words' (or gestures) slipped out of the mouths of the players and were picked up by the field mics.
