man talks while on the phone

If both partys are on dect phones the chance of having trouble is very slim. The problem occurs when one isn't, your only as good as your weakest phone. Now I also have seen a modified CB radio or one with a dirty linear amplifier come across phones. These can come across recorders, cable television, radios and a host of other electronics.

Sure, you're very right, but I know what I use, and know what my son uses. You're right about cb's and linears too, but they would screw with everything. I can tell if there's a hot linear in the area very easily. They sound nothing like an evp though, but with one around, of course you couldn't use anything. All of the one's from my phone didn't make it to my son's phone, just mine. I'm pretty sure they came from my end, because some were loud and clear enough, he would have to hear them.

Glad this was all cleared up... Can't understand why 'Sensitive' wanted to fake a voice - if that is what she did - but I'm glad it was picked up on.

It reminds me of something that happened to me a few years back when I was on the phone. I was talking to a friend, trying to organise where to meet her for lunch in town. I said to her "Okay, so I'll meet you outside the record shop at seven, and we can go to ---- for dinner, is that okay?" And suddenly a man's voice appeared on the line and said, "Oh yes, I will be there." And THAT really scared me. I actually phoned my friend later to meet her somewhere else JUST IN CASE some guy had heard it all *somehow* and knew where we'd be that evening.

I know phone lines can pick up signals and cross over etc, but it did freak me out a bit!
