AFFIRMED.
Before WIDENER and NIEMEYER, Circuit Judges, and BUTZNER, Senior Circuit Judge.
PER CURIAM:

1
Robert Lee Spencer, Jr., appeals from the district court's order refusing relief under 28 U.S.C. Sec. 2255 (1988).  Our review of the record and the district court's opinion accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge discloses that this appeal is without merit.

AFFIRMED

Specifically, Spencer contends that counsel was ineffective for failing to object to tape recordings of his conversations with a police informant.  Because this claim is without merit and the district court properly denied the other claims, we affirm
