First attempt at a recording. I used Audacity on Windows with a USB mic. I tried clearing up background noise.

Welcome Bobby

Your audio meets LibriVox requirements, so you are good to go. One note: Your volume is barely above the minimum of 86dB at 86.5. You should shoot for 89 to allow a margin of safety.

You can pre-check your audio yourself by downloading the free Checker app: https://cgjennings.ca/projects/checker/
Passed with Warnings is a fail with regard to volume.

No need for a new test.

Happy narrating!
