Some weirdness to report

Post by TSellers »

Just made a local call at 11:50 AM MST, during the ring, I heard some people talking for a few seconds. It was as clear as if I had called them, I suspect if I said something they would have heard me. Then when the line picked up, I got voice mail in a foreign language of some sort, sounded eastern european.

I hung up, then instead of redialling, I hit the redial button to be sure I redialed exactly the same number. This time my intended party answered the phone. Sounds like somehow my original call got onto the wrong network or something.

Mind PMing me the number you were calling and your number again?

I didn't think the phone would have any bearing, however FWIW, I also was on a DECT 6.0. Go figure.

theoretically nothing should interfere with DECT as it uses the 1.9ghz frequency range, which is untouched by other electronics (supposedly)

Was your cordless phone a Panasonic DECT 6.0?

good thing our phone's are on that frequency (DECT 6.0 1.9ghz), i wouldn't wanna hear my computer (dial-up days), nor the microwave
but it's still compliant with the FCC part 15 rule. has to accept any interference. i wonder if the sun had sun spots that day or bursted a gama ray..
