In my notation system, they work out to (ascending) A F A D Bb, and A F A F Bb. The first one works out to close-voiced a subminor triad with a note a fifth below the bottom note, and another at tritone above the top note. It seems to be especially intriguing in a spacey timbre, like chorused strings. As a refresher, my notation system maps the 11-step 7:4 approximation to what visually looks like an octave, and skips over the G#/Ab key (i.e., half-step between G and A).
