	I have a standard blow with a standard 115V single phase "four 
speed" motor on it.  The label on the motor says it is a 1050RPM motor with 
four speeds.  The problem is that all four speeds are about the same.  
My questions are as follows:

	1.  If label RPM is 1050 what are the other 3 speeds, higher, lower 
            on each side or what?

	2.  I thought motors come in 1050, 1175 or 3000 something, other 
	    speeds were gotten with a rheostat or pulley system...


Anyhelp would be appreciated...
