I have a phone line that has some hum on it. The hum originates in the phone companies lines. They do not intend on replacing the phone lines in my area any time soon as they say the hum level is under the guidelines set by the government.
To make the best of a bad situation my idea is to try and attenuate the hum by inserting a “simple parallel (tank circuit)/notch filter” in the line going to my phone. The hum seems to be in the 60cycle/60hz range.
The only experience I have with electronics is building guitar effects stomp boxes. I have no idea as to what value components to use or even if this has a chance to work. Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance for any help,
yeto
