You're welcome, and thank you.
And yes, I do agree that certain soundboards are problematic and less ideal (compared to a good audience) from an overall quality perspective. Usually, in the case of the Grateful Dead, shows that are distributed in SBD where a technical problem of some kind exists (and there are quite a few), a notation to that effect is written in the associated text file. On the other hand, there are certain types of boards and mixes - such as a "Betty" board or a "Healy" mix - that often stand out as "preferred" or better than most. That said, if you can get any kind of Charlie Miller sound board (he primarily does GD but does Phish and perhaps others too) they too are often the "best".
