The noise (cont'd)
OK, I thought I'd tell you exactly what happened yesterday. I was in bed, and I was just about to fall asleep when the phone started ringing. It gave me a serious fright, just like everything does when you're half asleep, and my heart was pounding like crazy when I picked up the phone. Who the hell was calling so late? Then I got even more worked up when I remembered that I can't answer calls with my stupid phone. So by the time I put the phone to my ear I was really pissed off.
That's when I heard the noise. Not only that, but I could clearly hear a voice on the other end, but I don't think I just overheard a conversation, because it sounded like someone reading from a list over and over. I couldn't make out any words. I freaked and just froze at first, but then I finally remembered that I wanted to record it, so I booted up my computer and held the microphone to the receiver. Unfortunately, the noise stopped just a few seconds after that.
When I listen to the sample now, the voice isn't as clear. After listening to it a few times, I'm starting to doubt that it was there in the first place. If you can hear anything besides noise in the recording (there's a link to it in the previous post), please leave a comment here.
Oh by the way, my neighbour's car is still missing from the driveway. Seems like he's been gone all night. So if he's not doing this, who is? In one of the comments here, someone suggested that the phone company is messing with me. Does anyone else think they'd do that? Purposely lowering the quality of their own service? What, they want me to switch back to my old carrier?

Freaky noise!
Aliens I think...
This blog site still has a few bugs
perhaps the aliens as well?
Any updates on the neighbor? Somebody I know came to my place yesterday and had me check his phone and he obviously also has problems with a fax that was too heavy to bring to me. He said he heard noise as well. Nothing about low frequency noise though. And his description doesn't match your mp3... it's weird by the way. Can you try and redorc it in better quality? it sounds really distorted. Or was it like that?
Aliens? Come on, man, at least give me some credit here.
Lasty, hi. Neighbour's still missing, read my latest post. The sound is basically what I heard from my phone, it did sound distorted. And I think I saved it straight to mp3, so unfortunately I don't have any higher quality sample. Hasn't happened for a while now, but if it does I could try to record it again, and make a wav this time.
I forgot to ask, how did he describe his noise? What exactly has been happening to his phone?
Hi. I don't remember all of what he said because he experienced more than one thing, but it wasn't a low crackling humm.
Let me ask him for his email adress so you can talk to each other
