Picking up phone chatter


Frequently I can hear faint phone chatter and even beeping coming through my speakers when my systems on but not playing anything. It's usually one-sided (only hear one side of the conversation). Keep thinking it's a cell phone but there's really no one within 100 feet of my gear.

Don't know how to stop it. Any ideas what's going on?

Possible cordless phone. Do you have a phono pre-amp? If you have a cordless phone is it a 2.4 ghz? Had a similar issue years ago and got a 5.8ghz and never thought of it again till now. One other issue do you have a computer that is on dial up, if so it maybe a bad modem.
Are you sure it is phone conversation and not a Ham radio operator? Look for a tower in your neighborhood.

Haven't seen any Ham towers, I'll take a second look. Do have a 2.4ghz cordless phone and a phono pre-amp. However, TT is not part of my system now. Computer link is hi-speed cable (Roadrunner). When playing tunes I sometimes have the wireless internet up. Next time it happens I'll make sure its disconnected.

thanks for the advise guys....
