Riddle Me This Batman; Low Frequency Hum: SOLVED

...in the sticks and bricks that is. In one of our rear bedrooms, if you stand in a certain spot, there is a low frequency hum that can be heard. Drives the wife crazy. Not loud, but a soft hum....

Even without power poles in the neighborhood there are still transformers. You likely share one with several neighboring houses. Maybe the hum comes and goes with demand. It may even be underground.

We do have an underground transformer across the street. It was replaced about 6 mos ago as regular maintenance.
