I can open up the tuner on my phone and sing a note that to me seems the most comfortable in my range and the one that is most in tune with my speaking voice. It is typically a G3, but it can be an Ab, or F#, or a little bit lower or higher. Today, for example, it is an F, a whole step below. It is an F in several independent attempts. I am not trying to get the G, but simply monitoring where my voice feels the most centered.
But it kind of made me think. We have an ability to sense ranges through hour voice, but not exact pitches. I could do the same thing and try to sing the highest note that I think is in my range. I just did that and it was a G4. That's about right: I can't go much above that, and when the A appears in my tenor part I am not happy. That's the highest note in Handel, I think. I could also do that with the lower part of my range.
