Pulsing light in USA, Joelton TN

Low and deep sounding vibration that is consistent and pulsing. At first I thought it was generated by an appliance in my house. But I shut off all appliances. Then I shut the power to my house. Then I thought it was the water line coming to my house so I shut it off at the box. I realized I was able to hear it outside as well. It was more pronounced under my carport, but was still audible in the open air.

It's a low frequency pulsating droning/rumbling similar to the sound a heat/water pump (HVAC) or a diesel generator makes. I live about 800meters (half a mile) from the largest Navel base in

Low pitch hum When I first heard it in my house I searched all over the house for it. I swore it was electrical. It reminded me of a motor that was stopped but still had power to it. That ni
