Thanks so much!
These are all in the MW Ready for PL

Checking your original claim, you did ask for 8-13.
Let me know if 13 is still coming. If not, that's fine. We have a lot of eager readers.

Hi Larry,
13 is still coming! Thanks

Finally found some time to listen to your recordings, Chip, and your reading style is excellently suited

. I only have a couple of notes for these first two.

Firstly, both have been exported at 144 kbps and 24,000 Hz, and I suspect some of your others could be the same, though I have not yet specifically checked. If you could re-export them both at 128 kbps and 44,100 Hz, that would be fantastic.

Secondly, for Chapter 26: 4:41 ~ the word "before" is missing from the line: "To-day, before we move on,...".

When you've made the necessary corrections, I'll mark them down as PL OK.

Larry, I'll be away for a week but should be able to listen to many of the recordings after that. I'll try to get a bunch of them PL'ed before then, but don't be alarmed if I don't appear for a week.
Apologies in advance for the expected delays.

Not a problem!
I will be away for a long weekend coming up, and I think it may be a technology-free camping trip!

All fine except for the export settings which are the same as above.

Oh they're all that way. Though the Audacity files are at 128/44,100, the MP3 export tells me that can't be done. Conveniently I save all of the AUP files so if there's a way to make that happen, I'll be able to easily convert them. Since it popped right up and said the 44,100 wasn't possible, I assumed (there's that word again) that exporting it in the highest available resolution was appropriate. I'll poke around a bit and soon if there's a workaround before hollering for help. Thanks for the heads up and enjoy being away from the keyboard!

Thanks, Chip!
I've updated the MW with the above.
They all pass Checker, so you've got them all fixed.
I've marked PL for the three sections already proof listened.

Our DPL will be away for a week, and I may be off line for a few days as well, but we will get all the PL done.

Full steam ahead!
