in Portable Sound level meters with Frequency Analysis
- click thumbnails for larger image
On loan from the Acoustics Vibration Unit, UNSW@ADFA
Precision sound level
meter and separate filter set with discrete component
electronics. Filtering of the signal in each band
was undertaken in sequence. Results only on the
analogue display and manually recorded
