I don't think we need serious mic comparisons at this point.=20
We have wonderful large frozen lakes here right now. That is where
the two of us were recording. Actually a very nice spot for using
commercial jets as image checkers. If I hadn't screwed up and had the
agc on my own recorder we would have had a good comparison of my foam
barrier to his large hard barrier for the same jet.

As you know this assumption I never accept as it would take the fun
out of it. :)
