At the past few events that I have been to. I have noticed that the judges running the RTAs will adjust the knobs on the front of the machine. Is this normal. Now the only reason I ask is because I witnessed a vehical being measured and he held a stedy db untill the judge adjusted one of the knobs. Now right away this does not seem right, yet I am still new and dont know all the politics. I 'd like to get some thoughts on the matter.... [img]graemlins/jawdrop.gif[/img]

On the Audiocontrol meter adjusting the range will not affect the score, however there is a knog beside that one that will vary the sensitivity +/- 10 db that will affect the reading and should never be touched during a run.

Sometimes it's hard to guess the range a vehiclewill be in as one car with a pair of twelves and one amp will hit 130 db and the next will have pretty much the same configuration and hit 150 db.

I saw that happen at a show once.. 2 years ago i think... Funniest thing i ever saw.
