Whisper H40 Final Report & Power Curve Summaries [RE-wrenches]

[Paul Gipe]

Todd,

I have not tested the H80 and I have no plans to test it. It's not suited 
for my tower (too much swept area) and it's too noisy for my tastes. 
There's an H80 less than one mile from my towers and on several occasions 
I've heard a loud roar from trucks on Oak Creek Road using their air 
brakes. So loud I've actually thought about heading for cover. Only 
problem, it wasn't trucks, it was the H80 in flutter.

That said, the H80 has outlived my prediction of early failure and is still 
functioning after two years.

Paul
