Hi Marko I purchased an Omega HHSL-1 sound level meter for our department. We have relied on it for our pretest GR-63 acoustic measurements for over a year. It is reliable, accurate and dirt cheap. I highly recommend it because it gives a sound level for average and peak (as opposed to acoustic profile), usually within 2dB of level in GR-63 report.
