I don't quite get this. All I can hear is some electric buzzing. Is that part of the mosqutio ringtone, or does the "mosquito" sound different and the buzzing is put in the background to see if you can tell the difference?

Cheerlessleader,

If you can hear the buzzing, that means you can hear it.

First test: only the first one and I'm 25
Second test: 14.9kHz

Shooting too much [small arms] without hearing protection has buggered my ears....

Sorry I'm confused I sort of heard all of them. I'm using head phones you head sort of click noises and other stuff.

25

second test probably 21.1kHz

You're supposed to hear a high pitch sound. The last three, it was a bubbly sound on my borther's laptop and on my dad's PC the last one was sort of a little siren sound with the speakers turned up high.

I could hear them all (faintly) with my noise cancellation headphones. In the 19.9-21.1 kHz range,
my headphones give a much lower tone that washes out the real tone. Also, I always have
a high frequency background ringing in my ears that I don't become conscious of unless I focus on it.
With the highest frequencies, the onset of the ring tones triggered an awareness of the ringing
in my head.

I could hear all of them. Some of them did produce an odd kind of pressure in the brain. I'm 49.

First site didn't work for me.

Second site, I could only hear the first two.

I now have an earache, a headache, and I'm nauseated.

I think the cats heard all of them.

I'm 47.

I'm usually congested from allergies. I also had a burst eardrum as a child. I don't think clearing my sinuses would help though.

So, these are supposed to "fool your parents" into not hearing the phone ring? And there is a way to speak in that high-pitch too? :lol: Because even if the parent doesn't hear the phone ring, they will be able to hear the teen chattering away. :roll:

I'm 26. I could hear the first 3 clearly. Number 4 I could make something out. They all made me feel realy wierd.

In the second site I could hear up to the 18.8. I might be able to make the next one out if nbot for the sound my computer makes.The sounds from from 8 to 16.7 were extremly unpleasant. If anyone was using those ringtones around me I might have to break protocol and slap the phone out of their hands. :wink:

Now my ear is feeling all itchy.

Arbie, I'll make a deal with you. If you slap the phone out of their hands, I'll jump up and down on the phone, screaming "it's gonna blow, it's gonna blow" 8O

First link - I heard up to 19KHz. The highest one - 20KHz made me feel chills up my spine but I can't say I actually heard anything.

Second link - I heard all of them.

For the first group, I could hear the 17 kHz tone but I almost had to strain to hear it. Nothing above that. For the second group, the highest I could hear was C (16.7 kHz).

I'm 44.
