The advertised level is 68 dB, but the true level will range from 65 to 74 depending on load and which side you are facing.
I got 72 dbA @ 7 meters with a (silent) resistance heater putting a 42% load on it on soft dusty dirt in a totally silent environment. Exhaust side, but since the muffler is pretty good, I wouldn't expect much difference from another direction. Most of the noise seems to be clatter.
Every other Champion I measured read either the same or louder, probably due to AC noise and reflection.
