Strange Broadcast

I'm definately not a believer in conspiracy theories but...I moved to
Newport RI last fall. My first night in a hotel the room's
radio/alarm clock, the radio being off, made a strange interference
like sound with a definate rythm and the underlying tone an almost 60Hz
sounding buzz. The rythm was a sort of a bop ba de bop ba de bop ba de
bop. It happened on a regular though unfrequent basis and was loud
enough that I unplugged the radio so as to not have to hear it during
the night. I figured it was a compressor or other piece of equipment
in the building starting up. Later I heard it on the television. Now
I hear it irregularly on my television that is a block or so away from
the hotel I first heard it at. What makes it really strange is I heard
it on my iPod while traveling on a bus from Boston to Newport probably
about half way between the two. That's about forty miles in either
direction so definately not a piece of big equipment in Newport. What
gives. Is the NSA scanning everything electronic by satelite or
microwave? There's a lot of military around here are they scanning
something? Martians implanting sabatoge code in our heads? Any
thoughts?

You are correct - the are Martians implanting sabotage code in our heads. I
have proof!! Start wearing a tin foil hat ... it blocks the Martian rays.

Great Scenario for a Hollywood Movie.
Really I enjoyed reading all that.

Thanks

My radio on my desk at work will make a sound like that if my cell phone is
on the desk and about to ring (though only when the radio's on). Normally
the phone's in my laptop bag about 8' from the radio and that doesn't
happen. If the phone's on the desk it's less than half that distance.

Could be - but I'd suspect it's more likely that the fellow in the next room
left his phone right next to _his_ radio, probably about 6" from yours.

Hadn't thought of the cellphone. I usually have at least one if not
two nearby. Doesn't seem to presage a ring but I guess they must do
some sort of regular polling. Strange that I've never noticed it
outside of New England.

You don't have one of those ULF submarine communication arrays around
there, do you?

AM?

Lower VHF?

Nah. No black helicopters involved.

> Martians implanting sabatoge code in our heads? Any thoughts


Could be the Greys, but thinking more along the lines of:

Any patterns with this RFI (EMI) and the weather?

Is it more active when it is dry than when it raining?

Sounds like a transformer somewhere needs a good smack with a 4x4. Perhaps
you could try using a handheld radio (using AM) to locate the source and if
it is power related, get the power co to come out to take care of it.

Its common.

I don't believe any conspiracy theories other than the one's I write.

Could be radar. When the navy floats into Montery Bay, we get all
kinds of strange noises coming out of the electronics. They're
suppose to turn off the radar when in harbor, but they never do.

Funny you should ask, the Naval Undersea Warfare Center is in Newport
and Raytheon is just up the road.
