Re: frequency to mel formula

[Arne Leijon <leijon@xxxxxx>]

I can go to the library and look at those reports, but probably not until next week.
There are actually two reports,
one about vowel sounds, from 1948, and the cited one
about consonant sounds, from 1949.

I will look into both, just in case Gunnar Fant cited the wrong one.
