[78-L] Audio Restoration saves family recording

[Ron L'Herault]

longer play because they know you can and will enjoy them.

I wonder how much money could be made in doing audio restorations from
home?  I could do to be pulling in $1000-1500 a month but at present I'm
living in the boonies of north central Arkansas....any ideas?
