STRANGE- TWIGHLT ZONE PHENOMENON. Can anyone explain?


I have an Entreq Silver Tellus Grounding box. At the present, there is only one Entreq Atlantis cable spade lead attached to it and on the other end of that cable is an RCA with a wooden outer exterior. This RCA is connected to one of the unused RCA’s on the right side of my Lumin Streamer. And it only connects to the outer RCA ring.

There are no AC connections of any kind.

So here is the mystery, when there is a storm coming, there is a static hiss coming from the right speaker. Sometimes I think I can also hear some sort of a radio station. If I disconnect the Entreq RCA cable it goes right away. If I connect the same RCA to the unused left channel the same thing occurs on the left speaker.

It definitely seems like a grounding issue, but honestly, I am stumped. I have moved and relocated any and all cables away from the Grounding box and its cable.

Again, this only occurs when there is some sort of storm.

I have dedicated circuits for my audio.

I have also tried a different grounding cable. What the heck is causing this?

Can there be atmosphere conditions that could create this?
 

I wouldn’t discount this at all. There could be “potential” difference that might be causing it. Have you posed this to Entreq support? They might have some explanation.

Next time it happens, try disconnecting the cable from the Entreq end, leaving it connected to your component. If you still hear the hiss, then it is just the cable and maybe one with a drain shield would fix it. As for why it happens during storms, that is a mystery. 

Entreq grounding box moonlighting as a dybbuk box. Get rid of it. It’s possessed. 

Thank you for the replies.

I will try to contact Entreq (if I can) and I will also try to disconnect the cable from the Entreq next time it happens.

I heard about a person who had a mercury filling in one of their molars. The filling would pickup broadcast signals turning their mouth into a radio.
