Guest guest Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 Lately I've noticed a rather loud high tone when doing certain computer tasks on my office computer. I thought it was a real tone from the monitor because if I covered my ears it got quieter. Now I find that it is not real. Depending on the exact position of my head and hands, I can make it turn off by applying slight pressure above my ear using two fingers. Or wrapping my left arm over my head and putting that hand near my right ear, the sound can be turned off and on by turning my head by about 5 degrees. Or I can turn the sound on and off by just touching a finger from that hand in front of my right ear. Putting a thin piece of cardboard between the finger and head I was no longer able to get switching. In this case the loud tone was in my right ear. There's also a quieter and higher (almost ultrasonic) tone in my left ear which remained constant (that ear's been ringing a couple days now in quiet envrionmnets). This office has aluminum on the walls and may have some interesting electrical properties. Anyone heard of anything like this? I'm not sure it will work the same tomorrow but while it was working the sound would turn on and off instantly, and reliably. I could easily have sent Morse code. Using an Electrosmog Meter I get 20 mV/m max (50 MHz-3.5GHz). Trifield ~.2 milligauss. I am near my Mac keyboard and mouse that emit AM band RF.
