It sounds sort of like a mass of crickets. But not quite. A high-pitched whine, but from what? It seems to undulate, even writhe. Listen closely: Some hear multiple, distinct tones colliding in a nails-on-the-chalkboard effect.
The Associated Press has obtained a recording of what some U.S. Embassy workers heard in Havana, part of the series of unnerving incidents later deemed to be deliberate attacks. The recording, released Thursday by the AP, is the first disseminated publicly of the many taken in Cuba of sounds that led investigators initially to suspect a sonic weapon.
The recordings from Havana have been sent for analysis to the U.S. Navy, which has advanced capabilities for analyzing acoustic signals, and to the intelligence services, the AP has learned. But the recordings have not significantly advanced U.S. knowledge about what is harming diplomats. Officials say the government still doesn’t know what is responsible for injuries to its personnel, but the U.S. has faulted Cuba for failing to protect American diplomats on its soil.
The Navy and the State Department did not respond to requests for comment on the recording. Cuba has denied involvement or knowledge of the attacks.

I’m guessing what’s outside of audible range is doing the damage. Just MHO.
It describes the sound as “...between about 7,000 kHz and 8,000 kHz...”
That would be 7 MHz - 8MHz.
I’m sure they mean 7.000 and 8.000 kHz.
My supposition is that it was the audio version of Hillary’s Book “What Happened” read by the author herself but sped up to ultra-high frequency. Oh, wait, that is her natural tone.
Hell I hear that all the time.
Who do I sue. CG cause of Jets.
Led Zeppelin and Jeff Beck and maybe a headphone mfgr.
Bell Tel from setting up radio loops and swapping tone.
Tell me, who ?
Europeans use commas as a decimal point in numbers.
Zacly.Thats just the carrier. Perfect argument for what you don’t know wont hurt you
They were attacked by Sonicaire Toothbrushes???
I can’t think of a reason to believe this is factual coming from the AP.
The recording was “obtained” from where exactly?
Maybe the recording came straight from Raul in Cooba?
I was in a bad car accident in February. The resulting concussion has left me with tinnitus that sounds like that. The other symptoms mentioned also fit concussion problems. Maybe the sounds out of the audible range caused a concussion of some sort? Just thinking out loud....
almost sounds like some old soviet sonic tech they got their hands on....
Tinnitus is treatable with cannibus. Give it a try.
1. I thought Cuba wants American relations.
2. Wouldn’t this also hurt their own people?
3. When did these attacks occur?
“Hey, this sound really hurt some of our diplomats. Give it a listen for yourself.”
What? What recording? I did’t hear shiite. What? Speak up/ What?
DON'T CLICK ON IT, YOU'LL GO MAD OR LOSE YOUR HEARING OR BOTH!
I checked it out and it is indeed centered around 7.5khz with a width of about 1k. A crude measurement with non-laboratory grade equipment/software, but that’s what I see.
Sounds like the Cubans are sped up.
Star Trek, TOS “Wink of of an eye” anyone?
