| 375653 | 2005-07-26 21:53:00 | Cellphones can invoke weirdness in other devices. 021 phones tend to make amplifiers make odd noises etc. It's probably something related to that. | ninja (1671) | ||

The amplifiers is a common effect, however there have been more substantial ones . My old workmate's alarm clock would go off if he left his cellphone on is bedside table and recieved a text message . Oh it was great . . the drunken 3am "are you awake" messages . . . So causing a phone to ring is not beyond the realms of possibility . -Qyiet |

| 375655 | 2005-07-26 23:13:00 | If i place my cellphone near my laptop then i get the usual interference noises, but if i place it by the dick-smith USB optical mousy, the mousy rightclicks like mad . . . . . menus everywhere i point the thing :thumbs: All good clean fun, but confused the stuff out of me when it first happened . |

| 375656 | 2005-07-26 23:21:00 | If you want to create havic, put an 021 by the mixing console of a major concert, and send it a txt. X-thousand watts of electrical interference through the main speakers is really annoying! :D | personthingy (1670) | ||
| 375657 | 2005-07-26 23:55:00 | Its really strange.If im about 2m away then the phone won't ring but If i sit next to it while im talking on my mobile.The landline phone will ring straight after I hang up. How is there a connection between my mobile and my landline phone? When you hang up, the phone sends a burst of digital data to the cellsite, presumably to announce the disconnect. I am not fully up on the actual data protocols, but I think it is part of the SID (Signal Identification Data) communication protocol that keeps the phone and cellsite talking to ech other. If your landline phone is reasonably modern it will have some electronics in it and the data burst may be being seen as an incoming call signal, hence the ring. It is not wise to turn a digital phone on or off near any sensitive (or important) electronic equipment because it is quite possible to cause data corruption or other effects. Switch-on is especially critical because at that point the phone doesn't know how far away the nearest cellsite is so it fires out a SID call at full power. Once contact is established, both transmitters reduce to the minimum level needed for reliable communication. You can start and stop electronically controlled machinery by this means, and heart pacemakers can be affected if the phone is in your shirt pocket, especially if the phone loses signal because that will provoke another full power SID. Cases have been reported of pacemakers reverting to "get you home" mode when cellphones are operated within 20cm of the user, and this usually results in a syncopic incident (loss of consciousness) whereby the affected person wakes up on the floor in a puddle of pee, wondering what the heck happened. Incidentally, phones left on in bags or pockets while flying will transmit at full power at regular intervals as they look for cellsites. That is why you are asked to turn them off, and they are definitely capable of interfering with navigation or control systems. It may be a one in 10 million incident, but I sure don't want that to happen on one of my flights! That could produce a whole plane full of pee-puddles. :eek: Cheers Billy 8-{) |
