Interesting question, Kim, and a good article. Tempts me to take my
MS stereo mic and pair of WL-83s out and to some experimentation with
my 744T. Time limitations mean maybe I'll just do it in the backyard
to see how it works...
I altered y7ou ACSII diagram - is this approximately more correct?

OK from my understanding of what a Decca Tree is it is essentially
three omnis placed at the end points of two back to back right angles

so for example, the distance of A & B & C from x is '1 unit' distance
thus the distance between A&B would be '2*unit' distance
C

A--------x--------B
all three mics are omni's in a Decca Tree but there has been
experimentation
with mics other than omni's being used in the middle position such as
an M-S mic
so I'm wondering if anyone has taken an actual Decca Tree rig out
into nature and made recordings?
