Lot of noise at times. Lost bearing then moved ship: Then picked him up good again. Then lost him again _ Now back again. Good sequence. Prob. complete except low freq. missing. BQR got weak for awhile. About 4/5's way thru tape. Then comes back in. About 3 complete calls with some parts missing. Some voice but not all the way thru. To next tape 2 to 8 minutes missed.
