Amplified telephone picking up radio
I have an amplified telephone that is intermittently picking up a
radio station. Is this a common problem with amplified telephones? Any suggestions to fix it? |

Any chance the problem goes away after dark? The reason I ask is that many AM broadcast stations must cut their transmit power after dark (FCC regs.). A low-pass filter on the phone line might fix it. Once, the TELCOs would provide the filter but that's probably no longer true. A 0.05 uF capacitor across the phone line might work. |
