Ok, so at least once a day, I keep hearing tones on my scanner on GMRS channel 5 (I forget the freq, but it's labeled in my scanner as GMRS channel 5, so we'll assume 462.6500 (unless I find out otherwise and come back and edit))
So the tones are brief, and sounds like someone is rapidly dialing a touch-tone phone (so rougly 4 or 5 tones). It's not morse code, the tones vary in sound (like a touch tone phone)
Anyone have any clue what might be happening? It's annoying because it goes on for several minutes, and "ties up" my scanner (since my scanner then stops at it while it does its thing and sits idle for 2 sec waiting for more traffic before continuing the scan)
i've tried talking on the channel with my HT, but no one ever responds
