Spectrogram analysis help

Use a large "Size" setting.
You can also get numeric data by exporting.

Hi!
So, I exported the data that gives me the exact values of the frequency peaks...but I had the following problems:

1. The maximum frequency as indicated by the exported data did not match what was shown on the sepctrogram graph. For the same audio I had put on the forum, the max frequency as indicated by the spectrogram seems to be slightly over 6350 Hz, but when I export the data (i have attached below), isn't the max frequency being shown as 6328.125000 (that is the lowest dB which is indicated by a peak?...correct me if I am wrong)

2. I am unable to locate the minimum frequency. All I am able to speculate from the graph is that it must be around 6270 to 6280 Hz. But from FFT analysis, I am not able to discern the min frequency.

3. What would be the uncertainty for the frequency values? Since it has 6 decimal places, I intially thought it would be +- 0.000001, but later I noticed that all the frequency values always had 0 in the last 3 decimal places, and as for the first three decimal places, they always were multiples of 125...like XXXX.125 or XXXX.750....or XXXX.375....so would the uncertainty be something else...perhaps +-0.125/2 (like least count divided by 2) = +-0.0625 Hz?

The "Size" setting that you are using with the sample rate of your audio is giving you an analysis of frequencies at intervals of 46.875 Hz.
Other than that, I can't work out what you are asking.
