Britta,
Everything you describe sounds "normal" and "within specs".
Golden is still good.

Your ppm won't be very high. Very high is not needed in most cases.

Ah yes, not too long ago, I bought the "upgrade" of a 20 (that's TWENTY) meg
hard drive for my 386 that replaced my TRS-80 that came with a audio cassette

 he'll know he's been hit
