Hi John/Rob
Any chance of posting the Black Oystercatcher calls - it will be
interesting to hear how they differ from the noisy beastie we have.
I first of all thought the buzz was caused by interference from the
Art box, and moved it a metre away from the RH1 - but found it was
still there just more heavily masked by more birds, once I checked
back at home.
Thats why I dont know which actual mike may be causing the problem -
for what its worth Rob the serial numbers are 0009618 and 0010430.
