Thank you and welcome Verdente.

Good first reading, but the volume is too low at 80.7 dB. You should aim for your wave forms to peak near the 0.5 mark, like this:

You can check your volume using our Checker program - see info at http://wiki.librivox.org/index.php/Checker You will find the volume in decibels on the Information tab. For your information, we look for around 89 dB (87-91 is OK)
I see the ending 5 seconds is louder than the rest of the file, if this was added after, perhaps noise reduction was not applied to this bit. (?)

You definitely know your stuff.

Thank you for listening. I will find some time today to re-record using your suggestions.

I don't have a website currently.

By all means, please contribute. Just follow the instructions in the first post.

I am out for most of Sunday, so don't worry about the posted deadline.
