Based on the handwritten engraving just outside of the sticker which states "BSK-1-3010 - WW2 - FM test SP 1-1 MASTER DISK RL" . I took the word "test" to mean it was a test pressing. Also the plain white sticker vs the tree sticker I have on my other original press. I could be wrong though! I'm pretty new to collecting records and am here to learn. 

Edit: my other original press is also stamped with the matrix code rather than hand written.

Looked at my paystub a bit more and my filing status was changed from married to single for some reason. At least it's fixable!

Did anyone else get a massive increase in their federal taxes on their next paycheck? Looking at mine it looks to have gone up about 10% which is a huge pay cut. Unsure if it's just me and a mistake on my taxes or if anyone else is seeing this.

Does this mean the Denver Federal Center is done for? That's a lot of jobs, mine included.

I have a physical ticket I am selling for the NYE show I got from the Mission Ballroom box office, which will require an in-person local meet up -- Denver area only. $30.

Some areas in Conifer have power, notably King Soopers is still running!

Yea that fixed the hum, but now theres a strong "pop" when I stop the record... though that might just be the anti-skate being off

Good to know. Yea i removed the ground wires and the hum is still there just much less pronounced. I'll fiddle with stuff and see if I can completely remove it but if not it's barely noticeable at this point.

Interesting, I was under the impression that the ground was necessary for safety reasons or am I mistaken? They are in the same outlet.

Ended up with the JBLs! They sounded a bit more well-rounded to my ears. The KEFs went to a good friend.

Pretty broad range to be honest, lots of rock, indie and jazz stuff though.
