I had some time this morning so I went ahead and recorded this chapter in advance of being formally assigned. If you wind up not using this thats ok no worries.

Section 17 PL Notes

After saying "Gulliver's Travels by Jonathan Swift" in the intro, just repeat "Chapter 3, Part 1" and go right to reading the chapter headings (the author sets out on his third voyage...)
There are some loud plosives, such as around 9:35 and around 13:20 but I did not find them terribly distracting. you could remove these if you wanted.

https://librivox.org/uploads/alg1001/gulliverstravels_17_swift_128kb.mp3 13:44

I tried ways to suppress the plosives including the FFT filter but didnt work. I hope that's okay

After "Gulliver's Travels by Jonathan Swift" please repeat the section title, "Part 3, Chapter 2"
12:10 inserted the word 'Eclipses' into the sentence "If they would, for example, praise the beauty of..."
Around 12:34 some background noise almost like carnival music (?) starts for about ten seconds or less
Around 13:30 can hear a truck driving by
13:54ish to 14:00 or so can hear people talking in the background
18:12 louder talking in the background
20:23 dog barking?

It sounds like at some point a TV was turned on in another room, and I think you started talking louder at certain points to cover it, possibly without realizing. It is intermittently audible from around 12 minutes in to about 19:10
I have to re-record the file to implement the changes of background noise, but I have been quite caught in some things. I hope this is acceptable. Thank you.

I just marked it PL ok. Don't think it's a huge deal.

Unfortunately there is still a lot of background noise in this one. I didn't go through the entire thing, but with my headphones on I can hear what sounds like an engine humming around 5:30, voices talking in the background for the first few minutes, and I still hear the carnival music at 12:42.

Hi Tatiana, as a LV listener myself, I often experienced that a little bit of bg noise is preferred than machine-like sound that appears after noise reduction. Unfortunately that day of recording, there was a carnival march at a distance, but I cannot re-record the whole section from scracth. So I have extensively applied the noise reduction process to the parts you mentioned. If it is not suitable, I would request you find another reader for this section.
