I bought an audiocontrol MP-200 measurement microphone and preamplifier. This is more than suitable for RC purposes. It cost me 350 dollars and another 80 for import duties into Belgium.
See:
http://www.audiocontrolindustrial.com/the200.htm As for the SPL meters, I have both the analogue and digital versions. The analogue version is a radioshack one which I bought in the US and the digital one is made by Sphynx, but obviously, Tandy, Sphynx, Radioshack and what have you, don't differ from each other. They both feature a RCA out. The correction files that do exist apply to both versions.
Rgds,
