Mosquito Cell Phone Tones
Have you heard of the “mosquito” cell phone tones? They’re high-pitched ring tones — so high pitched that older folks aren’t supposed to be able to hear them due to the residual hearing loss that comes with age.
Here are the tones. Try them out and see if you can hear them. Surprisingly I can hear the tone for 30-year-olds (it’s quite awful) in spite of being much older than 30. I can’t hear the 24-year-old tones, which makes me think this is more than an urban myth. Can you hear them?

I can’t hear the 30, but I can hear the 39 and younger. It too could be described as awful.
