I sware, my computer speakers have become posessed.
They’re picking up (edit edit: I originally said FM but have changed my mind, I’m picking up foreign language radio now… I’m totally confused.) radio all by themselves- and not just one station, but many stations!! All at once! All reasonably clearly, too (although very quietly - can only be heard when speakers are at near maximum volume)
It’s a dodgy cheap amplified 5.1 system, and it’s plugged only into power and my pc.
Anyone able to shed some light on this? It’s got me completely stumped! (It’s also got me not wanting to touch anything for fear of stopping the radio, to me this seems a very very odd phenomina!) It’s happened before, and I’ve just played round a bit and it’s gone away. But this time I’m more interested in what’s going on
Do those kinds of ghost radio signals come from the home wiring or from the circuits and amplifiers in the speakers? If it’s from the home wiring then maybe a good surge protector will filter that out of the power. If it’s from the internal circuits in the speakers then you’d need to figure out some way to better shield the speakers and the wires.
My mom works at the front desk of a doctor’s office, and they have this semi-big speaker next to the window and whenever truckers stop at the stoplight right outside the window, they pick up their conversations. They caught them cussing once…
