I have a file posted in the file section called ConeMarsh.  I would 
appreciate feed back regarding the recording.

It was recorded in Iowa at a marsh and from an elevation of about 
fifty feet above the water level and a min distance of about 100 
yards to water edge and the marsh is another three hundred+ yards 
wide.  The Red-winged Blackbirds are in the grass at about fifty 
yards.  The microphone was not panned during the recording.  The 
microphone is a DIY Telinga dish with two Shure 183's mounted as 
stereo.  The caps are spaced about one inch apart in the dish, 
without a barrier. I don't recall the exact gain but it was on the 
high side because of the distance to the subjects.  The recording 
had post treatment of normalizing and a 50% noise reduction to the 
file based on a small sample applied to the whole file, plus the 
conversion to MP3.  There are no appended sections. 

There are a couple jets in the file and I know it would be better 
without them, can they be removed through EQ?

Can I do more to help the stereo image without installing a barrier?

Does the file paint an image or is it just a bunch of soft and load 
sounds?

Are there too many sound sources to make a good recording?
