Mark, thanks for the tip on the circle and other characters. That's good stuff to know.

I don't see a flatted third in M.Ted's post. I see A# twice, even when referring to the notes you posted. It may be a typo, but neither A# nor E are found in the chord you asked about. Without the flatted third, I wouldn't use the word "minor" in naming the chord. F sharp seventh flat five would make sense to me ("seventh" being understood to mean the flatted seventh note of the scale, as opposed to "major seventh" meaning the seventh note).
