I saw this post this morning:
http://www.dynapipe.co.uk/technical-info.htm
It gives the optimum frequency and frequency range.

Hope it helps

Hi,
I hope your problem is sorted using Martin's post. If still not, you can try to make one using the following post of Martin which is although not upto the frequency you are looking for but I think can be modified for that..

yes I can help.
I have just started on a flowchart, that not only will sweep, but will also be modulated at 1Hz as per web site.
Will post later today if all goes well.

Hi Ken,
Here is my first attempt.
Sweep frequency is from 7.88KHz to 16.96KHz
Pulsed at 1HZ
So frequency will sweep from 7.88KHz to 16.96KHz then back to 7.88KHz in one second.
Then no output for 1sec.
Then sweep from 7.88KHz to 16.96KHz then back to 7.88KHz etc.

Note: Output is from PWM = GP2
