Possible....problems?
Have you thought about deafness? |

This will be used to target barking dogs 200 feet away. |

20k is not high enough for dog blasting. It's beyond human hearing for them. More like 50k. Plus your tweeter may not be capable of what you're contemplating.
But if you don't put a cap on the tweeter, unless it's a piezo you'll get all the lower frequencies in there and may blow the tweeters. _________________ ShoBud The Pro 1

25k is the highest freq that I can find an amplifier with any power for.
I have recorded a 20k signal and have pulsed it a random rates and it get there attention but I was only pushing 50 watts into a tweeter so it didnt do much for the continuous barking.
I figure 300 watts may make it a bit uncomfortable for them. |

Children about 14 years and younger can register frequencies below 30KHz, and at higher levels may get their hearing damaged. For useful dog-scaring frequencies – 40 to 60KHz – only very small piezo elements will do, but they will also need to be high-pass filtered to prevent them from getting burned out.
Effects needed to blast dogs at well beyond 200ft distance are low – below 10 Watt – at such high frequencies, and the frequency should be modulated a few KHz up and down over a few seconds to avoid loss of effect (on the dogs) over time. You'll most ligely get rid of rodents in the covered area too, or they'll stay underground. |

Something else to consider... the high frequencies are progressively more directional (unlike low freqs). Line of sight (no obstructions) would be preferable. Sounds like something we've all toyed with doing over the years... Have fun! _________________ MCI Arlington S-10 3+5, George L E-66, BJS & Emmons bars, Fender Stage Lead II 100W 1x12, Fender Satellite SFX, custom FX rack, 1983 Dobro 60D, Martin D16GT, Ibanez AS73, 1978 Rickenbacker 4000 custom. |

I'd be worried about your own exposure to high sound levels, those above your range of hearing. Sounds you can't hear can damage your hearing, and if you can't hear them, you won't know damage has occured until after the damage is done.
Proceed with caution. |

thanks Donnie , Im planning to put the tweeters in separate PVC tubes approx 3 feet long to directionalize the signal. |
