Thanks. The noise detection seems very sensitive; I faded the audio out for the ~5s silence at the end, and the noise measurement dropped to 25% of the original value.

Section 12 is ready for spot PL.

Edit: It occurs to me that the noise might be measured only from the last five seconds. If that's the case, I might need to re-record that section; I don't have the earlier version I uploaded.
I am not sure how it measures the 'noise' level and assume it takes the entire track into consideration. Your thoughts on the last five seconds are interesting though, I will check it out. It is very sensitive and I usually keep that turned off in my Checker, just using my ears. If I don't hear noticable noise then it is ok with me. Others who do use that measure, don't bother about it unless it goes above 40 dB or so.

Don't re-record it! My ears had no problem! I actually couldn't figure out why Checker thought it was so high, other than in the end silence. :) Section 12 is PL OK :thumbs:

Oh! But watch out that your opening silences don't get shorter than .5 seconds.

PL note for Section 16:

At 32:44, recorded, "that no man is so unaccountable" should be "that man is so unaccountable"
