John,

Here's more information:

The device is used in a "pass by" noise tester. This is a bundle of
instruments - including microphones - that take readings of cars and trucks as
they pass. There are various noise requirements in different states and
countries and this collection of devices has been assembled to make such
readings.

The "volume" of the pass-by is recorded and radioed to a trailor, the engine
speed (from this device) is recorded and transmitted back, and there are
relevant additional characteristics recorded at the read - namely weather and
ground temperature. This information is used in calculations for the final
output readings.

Insofar as there is no forseeable end to government regulation of the noise a
particular automobile might make, the license is expected to be needed for the
next 5 to 10 years.

Thank you.

Jeff Forrester

John,

I've located the operation that uses the telemetry device that we'll be
offering an explanation on. Hopefully it's not too late to petition for this
renewal? I was told by one of the operators that the device was used to
detect engine speed and that it would be in use for the next 5-10 years.

I'll forward a more comprehensive description asap.
