@gsuberland @funkylab tbh despite all that I do think it's fair to attribute 90% of the difference to the technology shift. Mostly it's to do with the way the GSM slow control channel worked being particularly optimal for inducing noise.

@gsuberland @funkylab (the particular pulsed nature, an audible modulation, the fact that the phone responds to a page at basically full transmission power ...)

@erincandescent @gsuberland @funkylab recently on a call we‘ve actually had what by my best guess was probably the smartphones own rf path somehow leaking into that same phone’s microphone audio, a brand new feeling artifact (that still sounded a bit like gsm interference used to)

@halcy @gsuberland @funkylab maybe the phone was literally on GSM (No VoLTE or no VoLTE roaming agreement)
