Yes, this a typical presentation of world wide hum.. Aukland, Taos etc. but it's not the one I get. Thankfully! This Brandon hum et al has a far ? [underground] machine- or gas- pipe feel to it, and doesn't get reported/filed as stop/starting much- if at all. I suppose what I'm postulating is a 'Background Hum' and another, [separate or not] 'Intelligent Hum'. Of course, in due deference to absent 'friends' , I could add a third - as 'LF Tinnitus Hum' but I hold little belief in this 'minor possible' - but it can't be discounted in some cases. Who knows what others hear? At least -lets say a 'phantom Hum' for that one.
I quite like this broad clasification as it starts to lend authority to a disparate field of neglected 'Official' enquiry. Zen: Ask a question and the master appears...
