Zusammenfassung:A sonic conduit tracer includes a sonic transmitter, a sonic receiver and a spectrum analyzer. The transmitter may be configured to transmit an audio signal down an interior length of an empty conduit from a proximate end of the conduit for identification purposes. The receiver may be configured to receive an audio return signal. The spectrum analyzer may be configured to analyze the audio return signal to facilitate the determination of a location of a distant end of the conduit. The sonic conduit tracer may use the audio return signal to determine an estimated length of the conduit.
