    Ok so.... ummmm... how do I say it.
    Anybody else ever just sittin in their bunk or cab, engine idling or not, fan or not or near by is an idle’r.
    It’s a quiet night and you SWEAR you can hear people talking outside, faintly, unrecognizable but noticeable. You check yer mirrors, you peek out yer windows!. They’re nowhere around. Yet you can almost make out what they’re saying... Or maybe someone’s playin music in their cab, loud, but just not loud enough you can positively pick up...Some up beat country or a radio station thats playing a comedy show of some type. Or maybe some old war marchs from WW2 come thru the air...
    Anybody else know what I mean?
    ....or is my cheese sliding of the cracker....

    I sometimes still hear stuff coming out of the speakers in my sleeper when the radio is turned down all the way or set to aux input.

    Sorry, it was the voices in my head being a bit too boisterous, I'll ask them to tone it down.

    Some nights are like that. When the air is just right and the sound travels a certain way it carrys voices and music like its right next to you. There have been occasions when I step outside and away from my shop at night and hear other neighbors that are a mile down the road and no longer hear my own radio. I bet someone else hears it a mile away from me better than I do. Lol! It’s spooky when you are on a big ranch and the air is crisp and clear and you hear the cattle talking and fussing to each other miles away from you.
