Could that buzzing noise you hear be some other signal such as cable leakage
or the AC power lines line noise ?

Trivia: Cable leakage has changed over the last few years. The sync
buzz of the analog TV era has been replaced by digital hiss. Put a
temporary antenna on your cable connection and listen on a suitable
receiver. Some cable systems still carry FM broadcast stations, so he
might also be hearing those coming from a cable leak. Locally,
everything was moved to digital channels in 2005.

indistiguishable from noise" (appologies to Arthur C. Clarke).
