Will you reserve a line in the MW for this item?

It’s against my policy to reserve slots… if they are filled before you submit, I will carry it over to the next collection.

You're a tough woman, Lynne!
This file would have been uploaded 2 hours ago except that Checker is throwing up a roadblock, as I mentioned in a PM to you a little while ago.

I’ve been burned before, holding up collections for readers who will “submit next week”, which , of course, they never did.

Go ahead and upload the file and I’ll see what I can do with it

Uploaded but ignore:

Will re-upload with volume brought in range

Uploaded How the Widow Won the Deacon with correct volume

This the file about which Checker complains at to the sampling rate.

An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge

The volume is too low. Please amplify by about 10 dB. I'd suggest applying the Leveler effect before amplifying... that will reduce peaks, so you'll be able to amplify the whole file more easily.

I noticed several mic bumps -- no need to fix them, but try and eliminate them in future recordings.

~18:50 Misread "They shouted and gesticulated,"

Please reupload with the file name _occurrenceatowlcreekbridge_

Uploaded for the 'leventy-'leventh time How the Widow Won the Deacon

https://librivox.org/uploads/lynnet/ssc102_howthewidowwon_wj_128kb.mp3 17:50

Added the name of the piece at the front, which added a couple of seconds.

I am very sorry to have made so many mistakes with this.
I promise to do better in the future... unless I'm wrong.

How the Widow Won the Deacon

The sample rate was still wrong, so I have corrected it.
You will need to change your settings for future recordings:

In an audacity file, look at the box on the far left. You will see the word Audio with a drop-down menu. Select 'rate' (at the bottom of said menu) and change the sample rate to 44100.
You will also see, at the bottom left of the file, 'Project Rate Hz' with a drop-down menu. Make sure this is also set to 44100.

Otherwise, this is PL OK.
