    I dont like this nonsense. They never tell you what constitutes a chirp, is it chirp chirp? Is it each chirp cause that means its 140°. Like have you ever tried to actually use this in RL? It simply doesn’t work.

    Its for a very specific region and a very particular cricket. So its bullshit to pass it off like some natural law

      You’re telling me you cant keep track of 30-45 simple chirps off a standard reference cricket in a 15 second period? Did you even go to school dude?

      Counting the negative chirps is the worst. Like, why is there a -20ch marker if it’s never -20?
