That are the ones that have a mosquito ring tone on the phones so the

I've heard this one and have my doubts that a phone speaker has either
the
frequency response or power to reproduce this properly.


We were thinking that at work. Still, you cannot stop made up stories
from
doing the rounds.


I downloaded a wave file and played it on the rather tinny speakers of a
laptop and I couldn't hear it but my daughter was going to chuck the
laptop
out the windows after 30 seconds.. she was 21 at the time. I expect that
it
would work as a ring tone.


I would have though cheap and tinny were the perfect pitches for
mosquito coasters.


Just like phone speakers then. ;-)
