Greg,
I have not checked myself in a while (OK, a couple of years) but I was under the impression they were about 2kHz. Still the rise time of the pulses get into trouble when the input is frequency limited. Even a 50% duty cycle would not have enough measureable energy beyond maybe the first or second odd harmonic to be accurate, I would think.
