 Many thanks!  It's very valuable to have a range of recorders tested
 using similar procedures.  Otherwise, all we would have are people
 like me saying, "That recorder sounded good to me when I had it for 2
 days last year."
 
 It's worth noting that Dr. Specht's tests, made with the preamp volume
 turned up to maximum, represent a sort of worst-case scenario for
 preamp self-noise.  This test procedure is reasonable for nature
 recording because we frequently need to boost the gain to capture low
 SPL sounds.
