Anonymous Coward User ID: 3640251 United States 10/28/2011 12:44 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I have this happen too... especially late at night and into the early hours of the morning. I have also shut off everything in my house and when I open the door to outside, I still cannot tell where it is coming from. I have walked all through my apartment and it seems to be stronger in certain points, however, it comes from ABOVE and there is nobody above me. I live on the top floor. It is a low-frequency "rotational" vibration. The VERY BEST I can describe this noise is if you are lying in a very silent house and hear a ceiling fan running, except with a vibrational HUMMMMM to it. The noise it makes definitely sounds like it is rotating a very large rotation. That being said, we have had many, many, many UFO sightings in the past few months... we have reported a lot of them and it has now gone on for so long, we have gotten some video and pictures of them. Although, they do not make noise like this that I hear late at night, it's really the only thing that could be SO bizarre. ALSO: We have experienced on 2 separate occasions a mysterious SHOTGUN BANG! that sounded like it came from right outside our window on the second floor. It was so loud, it made my gut sink to my feet the first time it happened. I really couldn't move for seconds as I could not explain what it was at all. The first time there was a flash of light with it, briefly saw it through the blinds. The second time it happened, there was a steady rumble afterwards, but like a rumble from the sky, NOT from the Earth. Very hard to explain, but no you're definitely not crazy. |

Iolair User ID: 5433447 Germany 11/15/2011 07:42 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Hi, are there trucks anywhere near you? I have had troubles with a humming sound as described here with a nearby company who delivered fruits and vegetables, which needed to be cooled. It was so terrible, I had to go to the court. It´s the coolingsystem of the trucks that create this lowlevel sound. Like described, it´s not really in your ears, but feels like it´s literally goind through your bones. Maybe this could be it.

Quoting: Gannon It was 7.83hz until about '82. It's been steadily raising. I think it's around 13-14hz now: [link to www.lunarplanner.com] I think we're headed into which is ultra-violet.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 6997268 United States 12/23/2011 01:06 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I often hear low level drone like humming outside, and as seems to be the trend, it's only late at night. There have been stretches where I've heard it many nights in a row, and there have been stretches where a fairly long period of time has passed in between. I'd say the last time I heard it was a couple of weeks ago. I've noticed it for at least a few years now, and was always very curious about it... it really sticks out like a sore thumb when you're outdoors in an otherwise quiet area. To the person who is keeping track, this is in the suburban Twin Cities area. |

Quoting: bugging out 433091This humming is not constant, it sounds like an electric motor trying to cycle. I've turned off all the curcuits in the house so I know it's not from within the house. I can even hear it when I'm out in the woods or at the neighbors house. It's really starting to bug me out! And no it's not tinnitus. it could be your computer, your tv, you alarm clock, a sqeaky fan at night... it can be a number of things. you have to unplug and turn everything off around you to tell if it's abnormal in nature. I don't think I can stand the stupidity of posters anymore. You are a fucking idiot. |

My hearing is ultra sensitive anyway since I can hear those stupid electronic devices that you plug into the wall to scare off mice & bugs, so this is nuts! I live on the Maryland-Delaware border and my cousin who lives in SE Ohio hears it as well and she lives in the middle of nowhere where nothing could be making the noise! Also an added note- I have found wireless signals in parts of my house even when I cut the power off. The IR detector fluxuates especially higher parts of the house near the roof. Could this be some sort of high end IR fields causing the noise as well??? |

I've been adding up a few loose hints and tidbits and believe we're onto something...some of it done on purpose to disturb sleep and get the population reliant upon various forms of medication. Some nightmare-inducing in a real-life version of the cartoon-movie Monster's, Inc. That one is tough to explain. As for your measurements, please tell me you are actually measuring RF. If you've got IR in hidden places, we've taken an odd turn. Cheers, John Detroit Last Edited by Gannon on 12/24/2011 10:35 AM Gadfly and Rogue Philosopher |

It only happens at nighttime from what i notice most at 12am-5:30am but when the sun comes up SILENCE Ambient noise masks this, if you are untrained to focus your hearing. Even trained, loud noises overwhelm our hearing. During the day, there are more noises while during the night, a greater expectation of quiet. Both influence your perception and memory of this phenomenon. It does change from day to night, but never goes away. The worst warbling tones happen at specific times, and seem to induce nightmares in my partner, whom I've seen stir in her sleep when I've been awake at odd hours. I've got Asperger's Syndrome, which seems to make me immune in some way to the emotional involvement. With my increased perceptions, I have grown used to using a solid silicone earplug from a company called Mack's...which does a more thorough job quelling the negative acoustic energy. If you can handle hearing your own breathing and such...even your heartbeat. The hum is still there, but significantly lowered. Then you notice it vibrates your brain stem...LOL! We are EM resonant perceptors...but beyond our five blatant senses. Cheers, John Detroit Gadfly and Rogue Philosopher |

Graham User ID: 658200 New Zealand 01/21/2012 01:21 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Ive posted this before , but will repeat it for those who missed it ... Here in Christchurch NZ , Ive discovered the noise - warbling often 2 toned hum/whine to be vacuum units on the back of sweeper trucks ...in the dead of night the noise can travel 10 miles if the vehicals noise baffles are worn .. 5 miles if in good condition Pinpointing the source once outside is near impossible , but I got lucky with GPS data and a friendly contracts manager of a local sweeping company ...... They were sweeping the Central Business District at night , this has since ceased with the vast "50%+" distruction of the CBD by a series of powerful earthquakes reaking havoc on the city ....God bless Mother Nature ......mind you , I'd sooner wake to a whine/hum than to the house being smashed to death on a regular basis lol .......closing in on 10,000 aftershocks now argh |

Going insane in San Diego User ID: 9855765 United States 01/30/2012 04:43 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I have been hearing the noise for over a year now and going crazy. Can't sleep, can't concentrate in my work when there is no other background noise like radio, tv, etc to kind of mask it. Earplugs don't work, and in bed I can also feel the vibration and sometimes I also feel some kind of electrical current going through my legs. |

Going insane in San Diego User ID: 9855765 United States 01/30/2012 05:27 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | In my case the sound is like the hum or rattle of a running engine, generator, fan, drilling machine or an electrical transformer. It seems to come from the walls or the structure of the house and I can feel the vibration. It varies in intensity, being worst at night. Sometimes it fluctuates like in short fits of stops and starts. I would like to know how to record it and measure it. From what I have been investigating you need very specialized, sophisticated and expensive equipment to do so. Does anybody have any suggestion on how to measure and record it? I have read that the new smart meters for electricity and gas may be causing these noises. Does anybody know anything about this? Also, which would be the best place to file a complaint? Should the complaint be filed with the EPA, or the government representative or whom? |
