i hear voices talking to each other sometimes on my computer. with clicking like on a mike. just said "have you heard any more about them.... (something)." 10-4 also. hmmmm. wonder who it is? the sound does't get louder if i change the volumn on my speaker. it is coming from one speaker though. very odd and irritating!!
|
and kind of spooky!
|
Our Sheriff's dispatcher comes through our TV on occaision. Maybe it is something like that.
|
Sounds like someone with a ham radio is broadcasting too strongly. Have you noticed any large antennas near you? It could be several blocks away.
|
My computer has done that a couple of times also.
|
Ok that would freak me out. :)
|
Never had that happen to me yet, I learned a long time to never say never. lol

Because if this he restricts his "Loud" radios to after 11 pm. Look in your area, there is an antenna somewhere. When you find it, knock on the door. In my experience these people are very nice and want to be good neighbors. Good Luck |
I live in a rural area and I just don't worry about it when it happens.
|
there is a tall antenna across the street a bit but for t.v. and my next door neighbor talks outside on his cell phone. oh well, it seems nothing i can do about it. just wish i could turn them down, even though they really aren't loud.
|
Yip, ham or CB. One time my TV picked up the road crew that was working on the road about 2 blocks away. It IS eerie at first!!!!

It could be a neighbor who has a cb in their vehicle/semi, and I forget what they call the "booster" but when it is engaged, they can come through your speakers.
They can be a ways away and still come through, so it can be hard to tell who it is :D:D:D |
The speakers on my old computer would pick up DH's CB when he was sitting in the driveway. After he realized I could hear his conversations, he'd pull up in the driveway, loudly say "Honey, I'm home!" and scare the BLEEP out of me! LOL! :lol:
The speakers on my new laptop don't do it, though. Not sure why. |
I get that too on mine.. I hear it early in the morning..sounds like a radio station on mine, but very faint

My DH is a ham operator and it could be that. Ham operators should have filters on their equipment to avoid this problem. Most new ones now have them built in. I don't know about CBers. However, we have a walkie-talkie set up and every now and then it blurts out but it is not coming from the radios. My DH has four antennas set up and never had a complaint. Aside from that, when I first moved in my home, after we had gone to bed, I could hear music (very softly) playing. I would get up, check everything, and finally figured it out. It was coming out of the faucet in the half-bath! Radio transmissions can do weird things. A relative that lived in Torrance CA back in the 60's could pick up the station KOMA here in OKC. Now that is a hugh bounce.
|
That would be weird....at one time when I picked up the phone, in addition to a dial tone..I could hear my neighbor's talking on their phone. Sometimes interesting...but then I realized that if I could hear them...they could hear me..didn't like that at all!
|
It's called a skip. My old house portable phone use to do it. You had to change the channels.
|
It's either a ham radio operator or a CB radio that's overriding your signal.
|
That's odd! I've never had that happen! Made me think of the onl party lines on the phone when I was a kid. If I dialed my own phone number I could hear other people talking. Can you imagine THAT happening today?@!! haha!
|
You have someone in your area that has a really tall
transmitting station (tower). Years ago we could pick them up on our TV. Quite annoying. J J |
I hear voices too... but not over my speakers... :shock: hehe
|
Sounds like soundwave interference with CB radio somewhere close by.
|
in the late '70's, I was gearing up for a major clean-up, had the stereo on, between records..... when I heard in my totally quiet house---F**K it, why bother,I'm not doing it!-- whoa! I looked around to see who was reading my mind....I put my record on & got busy! Decided it had to be a XB bleed over that the tuner picked up---BUT the timing was just perfect!! LOL!!!
|
Baby monitors and intercoms can also come across. our neighbors had an intercom between the house and shed just like we did and we heard each other until we changed channels.

My baby moniter & my neighbors down the street were on the same channel. I changed mine real quick.
|
Sounds like a ham operator. I have heard of people talking thru the internet also being picked up.
|
We get this sometimes during sunday morning church services!!!
|
Sounds like you are picking a ham operator or truckers cd calls. Just my guess!
|
My guess is a ham radio, or CB or police radio coming through on your speaker.
|
yes, I think It would freak me out, good think I am hard of hearing lol
|
My son's stereo used to do that until I threw it into the pool.
|
very interesting
|
I can't use my large stereo system because it knocks my phones out.
|
It would spook me too :)
|
When I was a kid my dad would chew me out every morning for playing the radio all night. Come to find out it was the central heating & cooling unit. Somehow it was picking up signals. My sew cave is a metal bldg. It is well insulated but in the corner where cd player is when you turn it off you can still hear sounds. It may be that wall antenna. Freaked me out the 1st time I heard it.
|
That would scare me to death.......
