Hi John,
              It was, down pipe to the left and directly above then right, =
roads either side, the drone at the start is the neighbors oil fired heatin=
g system - when that switches off the noise drops to around 28dBA if Im luc=
ky... - Still seems to be a lot more vehicles around since the last time I =
made a similar recording:

Ive since retrieved and cleaned the mic It was covered with splatted debris=
 - still works fine which prompted me to cover a binaural head's ears with =
the same magic material and roll the recorder again.

Kind Regards,
-Mike.
