Since many of us are in the northern hemisphere and it's beginning to get quite cold. I can't have my streambox outside because the opened window, even if it's tiny crack, lets too much cold air into the house.

If you are in the same situation, I wonder, how have you placed your Locustream mic to pick up outdoor sounds without having the window open and freezing inside?

I am hesitant to drill a special hole through the wall in the room where the streambox box is located. I haven't yet found the time to install an extra long network cable from the router through the wall, leading it to a place where the cable can pass to the exterior of the house.

Being outside also means that exposure to extreme cold, water and ice, and dust could have a negative effect on the operation of the streambox. I suppose this will be a part of the experiment.

All the best,
Eric
