I stay on the side of not recommending Jecklin Discs for nature
recording. I find it ok for "near field" and marginal for "far field"
and completely weak for "faint field". I would always choose a tree
over the Jecklin.
I have not been home for 3 weeks so I lost touch with Curt to get his
evaluation of how the blockhead design worked compared to his barrier
trials.
