Blue whale frequencies are between 10 and 40 Hz. Thanks for the post, feardia. I am going to look into ELF (3 to 30 Hz) and military com more.

My experiences and feelings tend too agree > you are pretty much on target here; Underwater > anti -submarine warefare technology- scrambling frequencies- disruptive jamming of communications are obvious factors.
Still, I believe the mammals will out-smart and outlast the iron buckets of mankind in the oceans > don't you.
