And do you and your friends have shaggy coats and waggly tails?

I don't know what frequency you think you are hearing, but I seriously
doubt that its 22 kHz.  TV flybacks run at 15,750 (approx), and
sometimes you can hear a subharmonic of higher frequency oscillators -
but as far as hearing 22kHz, that's strictly for the dogs and birds.
