Cards will have little cutout circles on the caps, while the omnis won't have any.

This only works if he has the CA-11s... and based on the question he doesn't. The CA-14s have permanently mounted windscreens so you cannot see the holes... which is why Chris Church adds the red and black shrinkfilm.

Yer welcome! I had the same question a few months ago when I got my CA-14s. A note with the mics should be included to address this question...
