caterhamnut Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 Obviously its not going to be as effective as very expensive ones, but does anyone know if this here would be good enough to check/tweak the 7's noise? www.mycaterham.com here Videos here 101,000 miles car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Deslandes Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 I have one that's virtually identical from Tandy (Radio Shack) It seems to work ok although I haven't calibrated it. I use it to get a qualitative check through the season to help decide whether to repack the silencer. Its probably within a dB or so. Good value for £10. Pretty yellow microphone shroud too!! Mine has a tripod thread in it which is useful so you can set it up at the right distance and angle     Edited by - Paul Deslandes on 23 Oct 2007 18:45:43 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caterhamnut Posted October 23, 2007 Author Share Posted October 23, 2007 So I reckon thats a then - if nothing else it will do for comparing changes. Stick a bit of bamboo on the end to get the distance from exhaust, and we are away...! Jack - had wondered if you got it ok! Will email...

Grubbster Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 I have the similar one from Tandy and it does seem to compare quite well with the one MSE use, can't be far out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
