TIME: 02:34 TEXT: "or hold it in his mouth uneaten." COMMENT: This phrase is repeated.
TIME: 12:22 TEXT: "Clark, 1322 Twelfth Street, N. W., Washington, D. C." COMMENT: The "N." should be pronounced "North".
TIME: 12:52 TEXT: "4. Beak--high: stout: wide: hooked: long: lobes: drawn down." COMMENT: At the end of this phrase, the number "4" is repeated.
TIME: 14:02 COMMENT: The entire "Points to Observe" section is repeated and the closing has a bit of sound after the last word. It might be easiest to edit off everything after 14:02 and re-record the closing statement.

Just uploaded my test recording! Thank you so much for all of the helpful instructions and newbie links, I would have been lost without them.
I'll use my real name please— That's "Sheridan."
Your welcome.
I've created your catalog entry and I see that your 1-minute test is OK so happy recording.
Thanks! My name is Matt Swartz. I’ve done a one-minute recording but I can’t yet get the file to pass the compatibility/compliance test, so I’ll continue to plug away on my end until I get it resolved. I may just have to re-record and re-save. More to come.

I did a quick listen. Your reading is nice and clear.
Two comments for future recordings"
You want the silence at the start to be between 0.5 and 1 second in length.
You might want to use some noise reduction to decrease the level of the background noise. The level in your recording is at the high end of the acceptable range.
