HOW TO USE A DB [NOISE] TESTER

[christurbo]

If you look at the pic its set to 100.



if the dial reads -2 I suppose it means 98dbs.



When I place the meter at 45 degrees and 50cms from the exhuast outlet it reads 106DB.



THAT CANT BE RIGHT!!!!????!!!!!



Its at 98dbs on idle

I've fixed it!!!!



It was a low battery!



My laptops speakers were reading 99dbs watching a touring car vid!!! so I thought something was wrong!



The laptop doesnt even register on the 60 setting now!



On setting 60 - I can barely get the needle moving by shouting out loud.



I'll have to wait for the missus to come back from having her nails done before I can test the car now.
