I would think the calls are a lot better if they are from Dave's
collection. I'm not knocking the BOCA series, because I rely on them a
lot, but the more modern recordings, such as those by Dave Stewart, and
more recently Graeme Chapman, are superior in audio quality, and the ones
I've heard eliminate the pleasant but confusing ambient sounds of the bush
- and other bird calls!
