A low hum in Germany Rhine Main area 50 km all around Frankfurt Zip 63...

consistent low frequency rumbling all around. Measured frequency is very low noise starting at - 25dB with changing frequencies between 8Hz to 16Hz. Body feeling is like fast trembling on a cold winter day or lying on a metal plate, that vibrates. So I hear it and I feel it It is now 6 am and the rumbling noise is still feelable. In a Radius of 40km there is a windpark (Groß-Umstadt) and I read, that this special noise could be heard in a radius up to 90km. But that does not explain the 21kHz sound that feels like a Tinnitus

Sounds like a train engine idling in the distance. It's a very low, rumbling. It is intermittent. It mostly drones at the same level, but occasionally pulses without a discernible pattern
