If it were a DSL filtering problem you would have the static all the time. A problem with the ends of messages would have me suspect the machine, but if you tried two new machines I don't think it is that. It could be a problem with the signaling that tells the machine the call is over, but I don't know enough about telephones to diagnose that.
