Can this be used to detect decibel levels of jets and other airplanes from the ground?

You could measure the decibel levels you receive at your location, not the actual decibel levels ýgenerated by the airplanes.ý

Hi Andrea, I think you can if the jet/airplane is real close, as if it was flying over you, but to be sure you can contact the manufacturer. Their contact information is below.Extech9 Townsend West,Nashua, NH 03063877-439-8324

I do not think so. It is hard to measure sound loudness with high accuracy anyway, so any calibration would have to be better than the factory, and for some specific purpose. I would just use it as it is, factory set.

I only use it to measure heart rate, beeps when it starts to measure that but otherwise no noises. So the answer must be yes, darned if I know how though.

I am not 100% sure, but my guess is that it would not be acceptable for full-range sound. There is some latency (delay) in the device, I think around 25 milliseconds. While this is OK for explosions and other rumbly sounds, I suspect this would cause an objectionable echo in speech or music. This is just a guess on my part, I have only used it with a subwoofer. Also note that they are monaural devices. You would need two for stereo. Hope this helps!

I use mine for my metal detector. It helps me focus on the tones I am getting.

I have only used this unit briefly for measuring speaker levels. I would imagine it could work for highway noise levels as well.

If you hear them, it will be muffled. I usually can't tell what the pilot on a plane is saying, but I know he's talking. Of course it will depend on how loud you're playing your music.

Yes, I can. There are line-level outputs that may be connected to recorders, or sound boards, or whatever.

This is the reason that we purchased one. We have an outdoor event venue for weddings and needed to measure the level of music to be in compliance with noise ordinances, so the answer is yes.

Yes it can collectively. This unit measures "ambient" noises, meaning whatever noise that exists around you all together. But, if you are in an area where surrounding noise is much lower than the noise that you are interested in measuring, then you will get a better reading for that individual noise source. Example: If you can lower your own noise around you, then the unit would be more discriminating toward the noise level of a particular source. I hope this helps you.

We have had no issues with the unit as of now. If there is background noise, it is very low. But I should qualify that we are using it to send our low end noise to sub-woofers mounted under our seats and it would take quite a bit of noise for us to detect it.Rick Blair

No, you need a Spektrum receiver for that. This is only for Tactic radio systems.

According to the manual, yes. I haven't used for that purpose yet but states it detects them all.

Yes. I used this on my last flight plugged into an iPhone but not playing any music. Worked good for getting rid most of the engine drone noise.

Not for tv unfortunately. Currently using as a frequency spectrum analyser. So I can keep tabs on nsa and aircraft rf transmissions. Just science project type stuff

The short answer is "Yes". However, the unit may be too sensitive and sound the alarm because of the carbon monoxide gas emitted by your vehicles. I use mine in the kitchen area of a park model mobile home to detect any propane leakage. Any inconvenience caused by a false alarm is insignificant when compared with the alternative.

yes, it can be used for detecting human, ambient and other hot(maybe cold) object's temperature.
