Unfortunately all too true. It would be nice if a parabolic did have
this sharp cutoff folks talk about sometimes. My telinga sucks in any
low rumbles from way far away. Though it is directional, so if I'm lucky
what I want is a different direction.
My Telinga, switch toward the dish puts in the filter, back is straight,
no low cut filter. Depending on the Owl, they may come through either
way, but definitely louder on the lower ones if the filter is off.
Somehow I remember the cutoff being 175Hz, but I could be wrong on that.
