If you transcribed this as Script A (IPA 305, SIL, LSU ), you'd be justified. Definitely voiceless and aspirated at least. This is the middle of the F2 range, and noise centered here is typical of dorso-velar type approximations (hence velar pinch). The F3 is weak and difficult to distinguish, but there is some indication that both F3 and F2 (for instance in the following vowel are pointing to about 1500 Hz in the release burst/early aspiration moments, where the noise is definitely concentrated around 1500 Hz. But there is some evidence of velar pinch in the transitions into and through the following vowel. And I think there might be a true second burst (of a velar release) about 20 msec after the aspiration begins (there's certainly something odd about the noise between 5 Hz just surrounding the 300 msec mark). The lag between the big burst at about 250 msec and the beginning of the aspiration at 300 msec or so is a little long for your typical double-burst situation. There's not a lot of information here either. This should probably be called 'Right Superscript Lower-case H', and I'd really prefer 'aspiration mark', but it's not always up to me. *Technically, P&L don't name the right-superscript letter diacritics for aspiration, palatalization and so forth. I think the first might be the actual alveolar closure, the second the alveolar release, and the third (when the aspiration starts), the release of the following stop. Note the apparent double burst, possibly triple (quadruple?), depending on what you count as what.

But in the absence of any indication of velar pinch, and any indication of labial transitions, alveolar is the best guess. There's not much in the way of useful transition information. What's incredibly front but not as front as /i/? If you look a little further down in the spectrogram (between 9 msec) you'll see the F2 getting higher still, suggesting that this isn't the most front vowel available.

The F1 is low, The F2 is quite high (1900? 1950? Hz). This may start with a glottal stop, but I just couldn't cope with trying to explain why or why not, so we're starting with the vowel. One or the other of these may not appear as the appropriate symbol, depending on which font(s) you have installed. The second line provides the symbol as a typed symbol in SILDoulos IPA93, followed by the same symbol as a Lucida Sans Unicode symbol. In the description that follows, the first line gives the name of the symbol (from Pullum & Ladusaw, 1996) followed by the IPA reference number for the symbol named. To properly view the phonetic symbols in the text below, you must have installed either SILDoulos IPA93 or Lucida Sans Unicode.
