You did a very good job with your readings. There are no changes needed there. There are two simple corrections needed in order to get a PL OK.

1. Please add about 2.5 seconds of silence to the end. The goal is to have around 5 seconds.
2. The volume is slightly too low. Please amplify by a couple of dB to get it over 86 dB. The ideal is 89 dB and you are about 4 dB lower than that.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks,

M

Don't mean to be overzealous, but we are so near. I can do 48 and 50 today. Jim :)

The following sections are PL OK: 65, 67, 71, 73, 76, 81 :D

82 has a few repeats that need to be deleted.
2:02 text reads "on dere necks so's he can hyar dem", you have "so he so 's he", just delete the first one and it'll be good
2:37 text reads "Dey ain't got no pins ter pin de scarf on", sounds like you have "dey ain't no got no", just delete the first "no"
2:57 text reads "good as de other kin'" sounds like "kin kine", just delete the first one and it'll be fine
3:44 text reads "eben ter marster's collie", I hear "ter mas marster's" just delete the first "mas"

Thanks,

M

Embarrassing! I am pretty sure I didn't edit this one, for which I apologize. Always in a hurry to get it done! Jim :oops:

I figured that was probably the issue . Nice job with the editing. It is now PL OK, as are sections 48 and 50.

Thanks,
