Hi all,
I just had a odd thing happen. I was on my landline talking when my handy (cell phone) rung. When I answered the handy my landline went to hell. Nothing but buzz and popps. I walked away about 2 meters and my landline was ok. Is this normal?
No it sounds like the radio transmission from the cell phone is interfering with the landline or phone. There are laws to stop that!
You've probably got a 'dry' solder joint in the phone or a cracked wire in the landline.
Cheers, Dave
Or if the landline phone is cordless, the cellphone may be jamming the landline phone. If you do have a cordless landline phone, try plugging in a direct connect phone handset, and see if it is reproducible. The cellphone may just be doing what it is supposed to do and the cordless may be sensitive to its normal operation. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
