&gt; &gt; Only thing you may try for now is changing GSM-provider, as it seems to=
 be
&gt; &gt; very clear the issue is to be found on some GSM-networks, and not (or=20
less)
&gt; &gt; on some others. Generally the 1800/1900 networks seem to be more likely=
 to
&gt; &gt; cause this problem than the 850/900 networks. For Germany I got reports=
 f
&gt; &gt; noise only for E+ network (and resellers)
&gt;=20
&gt; My experience on Blau (E+) is that I hear the caller excellently - but
&gt; the caller complains that buzzing is very bad.
&gt;=20
&gt; &gt; Hard to tell. We don't get sufficient number of reports, and due to nat=
ure=20
of
&gt; &gt; reports nearly all are problem-reports, people without problems usually=
=20
don't
&gt; &gt; post a report.
&gt;=20
&gt; I suggest, therefore, a wiki page where users are encouraged to
&gt; document the line quality at both ends (good or bad) against their
&gt; provider.

Local has never been a related issue. It's always far end that &quot;get's the=20
buzz&quot;. Quite basic and important to understand. We have *two* distinct=20
audio-transfers with opposite directions. Buzz is on=20
=46R-&gt;(mixer,GSM)-&gt;far_end only.
If you hear local buzz, your mixer/gsm-sidetone settings are somewhat=20
incorrect.

I'd appreciate such a wikipage and the reports there very much.
Additional needed info: GSM-band (we don't know all providers!), signal-lev=
el=20
GSM
In fact that's what I did in Germany, collect reports from users about nois=
e.=20
I even had them call my answering machine so I actually collected some real=
=20
audio samples as *.wav. Result: in Germany it's virtually only E+ that's=20
causing the noise.

Anyway still this makes no database for a guess on percentage of users that=
=20
suffer from complaints of their callees about buzz-noise.
