Actually, a good experiment would be to wait until they test an emergency siren. Find where it is and check the pitch with a tuner - if possible. I guarantee you that if it is a clear/fair day with a constant temperature, you can drive a few miles away and if you can still hear it, the intonation would be almost if not the same.

Nice for the horn, as it gets warm & less moist accumulates. And at the edge of the stage opening, with these 10.000 W beamers, no problem of getting to flat, but rather sharp. As the old saying "If too flat, better too sharp !" ############################################# Am 29.05.2011 um 20:57 schrieb John Baumgart: > What's the temperature on stage compared to the termperature off-stage?
