Yes, I did. Just wanted to know actual experiences. I haven't noise tested mine with a DB meter yet and was panicking.

I've ordered the bits now, hopefully I will have done enough.

It's a long drive home if not.

The noise meter is only at the end of the runway as you turn off so it will be cool as long as Mark doesnt power slide it past

Take a couple of pairs of old oven gloves, cut them in two and place a glove over each microphone until you have finished - DON'T forget to remove them at the end of the day .

Mike, if someone is sneaking THAT close to the microphones, he/she may as well do a proper job and fit one of these to each mic:

I have a great idea, I'll take Beccy's Clio instead, that'll pass the noise regs no trouble.
