The point with a hole is that it doesn't ever touches the plate dividing
the two channels of the Stereo DATmic + that the cloth doesn't seem to
stretch the dish unsymmetrically and turn the opening into an oval. You
probably have the wind-cover which was made of symmetrical fleece.
This hole doesn't seem to cause any problem, but I'll wait a while to hear
more reports.
