Hello all,

I have been using a windpac with my MKH 3040 for a few years now.  I really=
 seems to me that the wind rejection capabilities of it have lessened over =
time.  I might just be crazy or perhaps the fabric has degraded somehow?  H=
as anyone else had issues with this?  I am getting wind on the mics in what=
 I consider moderate wind.

Also I sometimes get handling noise with the suspension when I did not used=
 to get it.  I know most of us are not using mics on a boom and moving them=
 around, but I am just curious if anyone has had issues and/or solutions re=
garding handling noise with the mics/cables/suspension?  I suspect the cabl=
e and the way it fits into that little slot at the base of the suspension..=
.maybe it does not provide enough isolation from the cable on the outside o=
f the blimp.

Thanks,

Danny
