All, Its spring in Australia, the birds are singing, but school holidays have just started and kids on motor bikes are doing constant circuits on the property next door. One new 2-stroke bike is particularly annoying. There is a 1-minute recording of it on SoundCloud here: http://snd.sc/VGh7DW I would like to be able to get a rough estimate of its noise level for legal reasons. Does anyone know how I can estimate a decibel reading from this recording? Details of equipment are on SoundCloud. My legal advice is that I have 'an entitlement to the quiet enjoyment of my property' and that the 2-stroke motorbike noise constitutes 'a legal nuisance'. Being able to measure the actual noise level would be a bonus. Thanks in advance, Vicki Powys Australia |
