Recordist's notes

This was recorded using a Sony PCM M-10 while in traffic near the Accra Airport. I changed the mic sensitivity halfway through, so edited the audio a little post-recording to make it even. Towards the end you can hear a announcement from the Ministry of Health cautioning listeners about Ebola. First time aporee map poster.
