A low hum in Mukilteo, WA
Low frequency, as in diesel engine in a small cargo ship, similar to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sNND8lT8qvA (The link is the engine room - what I hear a similar sound "far" from the engine, where you can still listen the engine sound in the distance, with dampening added to it). Good questions, but I do not think the hum I listen to is coming from me. My wife sometimes also listen to the hum, but not my kids.
