ledzep59 Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 my solid state Marshall makes that "click/buzz" noise when my cellphone is about to ring or ringing and my tube amp doesn't? I'm just curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jantha Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 Cause it has a speaker... Put it next to the tv, stereo, computer speakers etc... they'll do the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TommyK Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 It's them microwaves. They are homing in on your phone. I don't like getting caught in the cross fire, that's why I wear a tinfoil hat. I've noticed that if I turn on my cp in my car, I get clicks and pops on my radio. It gets louder the closer the phone is to the radio control face, as in it's in my hand as I shift from 4th to 5th gear. It's that RF interference we all agree to put up with when we purchase consumer grade electronics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoda Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 It's RF from the Cell being picked up by the amp. It will make your computer speakers do that too, when you get it close enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwness Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 The phone sends out radio signals and the amp is picking it up. The speakers on your computer will do it too. CW Edit: Yoda beat me to it. What she said. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has a lot to do with what type of phone you have. I know on my phone I hear it when the phone is looking for a bluetooth or WIFI connection.
