---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Alan, I often wonder what tone the vacuum in my wife's cleaning biz. is. Of course, I do the vacuuming,but I'm curious what the key is. In fact, in all seriousness, everything that produces a tone has a musical note associated with it for the most part anyway. Marshall -------------- Original message -------------- From: "Alan Barnard" <tune4u@earthlink.net> They just do everything weird in Chicago. Ha. A and F#, huh? Minor third, major sixth? Opening notes of Dvorak's 9th? After I sent that post,, out of curiosity, I put the phone up to the old ETD and found it was slightly more accurate at A3 than A4 so maybe just a tad flat ... but pretty darned close!

At least in Chicago, that's the case, and in fact, the F# seems a bit louder than the A. So...maybe that might work down in Missouri...but I doubt it...you'd have to...uh...'show me'.
