Hi John: Just going thru the emails. While I didn't move in an attempt to resolve this incessant buzzing, it did help it somewhat. Where I was in Maryland, there was a lot of air pollution even though I was practically on the Chesapeake Bay. The Bay was like a block from the house we were renting at the time. It was a wood frame house, one story with a typical pointed roof. The house didn't have a basement. It had a crawl space. There was no typical high ground spots in Kent County as it was pretty much at sea level. It was a very small town that is 70 miles in either direction from any large city. When I checked into the geology of the area, I found that the bedrock consisted of limestone and quartz.
When I moved to Florida, the complex I'm in only goes two stories high and the roofs are generally flat down here as a rule due to the hurricanes. That is also why you don't see many high rises in Florida either. This complex is a combination of brick, stone and wood. The house in Rock Hall MD was rather isolated. I have not checked into the geology of Daytona Beach as yet. It will be interesting to dig into that and see if there is a correlation with the geology of certain areas if it makes the hum worse or eases it.

Some time ago I attempted to complete a survey of sufferers who had found a difference by moving home. This was an attempt to find a solution to this problem and I would be grateful if you would help with a few details. For example, were the properties of similar construction, brick, stone or wood, were the buildings tall and did they have a flat or pointed roof, Were they isolates or in a city center and were they located on high ground or a hill top.

I have found that different stress levels intensifies it. If I'm fairly level like today I don't hear it much. This idiotic hum is one of the reasons I don't get great rest. I have literally been woken up in the middle of the night with the hum so loud I couldn't sleep. I moved to Florida last year after I lost my Dad and my hubby. I haven't heard the hum as loud down here as I did in Maryland. Don't know if location has anything to do with it. > > > > > > > > >________________________________ > From: John Dawes <[email protected]> >To: [email protected] >Sent: Monday, October 28, 2013 4:19 AM >Subject: The Hum and Stormy Weather > > > >During the past two days my measurements of Hum energy have shown a reduction >of around 20 per cent which agrees with my own perception of Hum intensity. >Also during this period there has been a low atmospheric surface pressure over >the UK with gale force winds. >A 20 per cent reduction in Hum energy level may be sufficient to take some Hum >sufferers below their own personal threshold level giving the impression that >the Hum has stopped and it would be interesting to know if anyone has >experienced this. > > -- >You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Hum >Sufferers" group. >To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an >email to hum-sufferer...@ googlegroups.com. >To post to this group, send email to [email protected] . > >Visit this group at http://groups.google.com/ group/hum-sufferers. >For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/ groups/opt_out. > > > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Hum Sufferers" group.
