Is this a common occurance?

Yeah, alot of the older cordless phones would put spurious emissions into
the SW bands. The ones from the late 70s or early 80s used frequencies just
above 1600 kHz for one channel.

I think the later UHF type cordless phones are SW quiet.



Has anybody else got any good stories of hearing
this kind of stuff?



Mostly it's just so much interference. But I did overhear some mope lie to
his wife and sweet talk his girlfriend. That's as good as it ever got, and
that was amusing for only a few minutes. Domestic phone just can't compete
with domestic SW as entertainment.
