knightni Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=5434687 Listen to the NPR broadcast first. See if you can hear the high-pitched "teen repeller" noise. Then, download the "ringtone" and see if you can hear that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knightni Posted May 13, 2008 Author Share Posted May 13, 2008 Can anyone actually hear the repeller noise in the NPR broadcast? I can hear the ringtone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kjshoe04 Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 QUOTE (knightni @ May 13, 2008 -> 06:28 PM) Can anyone actually hear the repeller noise in the NPR broadcast? I can hear the ringtone. Maybe they assume no teens are listening to NPR, so they didn't actually play anything. I sure couldn't hear it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, this was an option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
