Audacity Forum

Hi, I am new to using Audacity and when I am recording a narration I also record what appears to be a program from another source. ie. This time sounds like a football game broardcast . Can anybody please give me a hint as to eliminating this induction. Thanks

What's the microphone, what's the computer, and do you have any tall radio towers around your house? Most non-engineers ignore them, but it might pay for you to look for them. In the US they're red and white and have marker lights at night and a flashing red beacon on top.

Listen at the top of the hour and they might give you a call sign.

In the case of that particular illustration.

AM radio stations can be heard with nothing more than a pair of headphones, a razor blade, a short piece of pencil lead and a long piece of wire (a crystal set). There's a lot of energy in that tower.
