can someone PLEASE help me :(

ive bought some logitec surround sound speakers for my computer, they work fine, except for one starage thing..

after about 10pm every night, they seem to pick up a spanish chat/radio station?? :confused: i am half a mile away from a large transmitter, it also does this when the computer is off but they are on standby

any ideas? :confused::confused:

Put some tin foil round the cables lol

Alternatively, learn Spanish :D Actually, are you sure its Spanish, could be a welsh radio station. We can pick them up here and we're a good few miles from Wales.

hahahahaha i am lolin hard thats really funny, i hear spanish people! i dont see how your speakers could pick up the signals, because speakers dont have radio transmitters in or anything that could recieve a signal like that??

Don't need a transmitter to receive. Clue is in the name lol

All you need to receive a signal is a wire or aerial. hence why some cheapo radios just have a length of wire to pick up a signal.


[edit] Are you sure its not EVP? Long-dead Spanish radio DJs trying to communcate from beyond the grave? It is Halloween... wait til midnight tonight and see if the zombified ghoulish cadaver of said dead DJs come lurching forth from the speaker lol

lol lol lol lol lol lol thats hilarious lol

have you got the cables twisted? never heard of that before, and you don't need a transmitter to receive, just something that will pick up waves e.g. a coat hanger

i think you can buy interference shield? i expect from maplins!

been reading through some logitec/it forums.. apparently the wires pick up the stray signals at night due to soemthing to do with the earths ionosphere.. whatever that is
