set mics up outside within arm's (XLR) reach so I can monitor (I realize th=
is is always a big gamble). I've found a couple options listed as "on top o=
f the mountain" and a couple at the bottom. Is there any recommendation of =
where I might be more likely hear the wind best? Thank you very much. Steph=
