 CB> Hey Todd, wanna hear about some real strange interference?  I pull

 CB> wife goes in and checks the answering machine and finds my voice on the
 CB> tape along with a message from a friend who apparently called while I
 CB> had just pulled up the driveway.  My voice was loud and clear on the
 CB> tape too, with no mods or amplifiers to this CB!
Not a thing strange about that. Cheap, poorly-sheilded phone equipment is
subject to interference. You don't have to run an illegally modified CB
to cause it, either.
 CB> I wonder if I'm being recieved by anyone else in the area.
Probably.
