Police Drone Sound Effects was Driving me Nuts...

...until I found this article.

 

I find it funny how I wasn't the only person who had been driven nuts by this, yet here is another guy who took the search on a whole new level, and dug to the furthest depths of this mystery.

 

The mysterious (I hear something different than he did) "78.5 Code 6 105 North Ave, 52." that can be heard coming from Police Drones in City of Heroes, is something that has driven this guy crazy for a very long time. He dug with a passion that most of us dedicate to our favorite hobbies.

 

After listening to a Police Drone while standing next to one, then repeatedly running up to it over and over to reset the sound bite, it began sinking in, the idea, or thought, "Where did that originate from?" I started my search online, trying to figure out where this sound bite originated and who the woman was that voiced the part.

 

Tonight was the night that I was going to begin this search, it was going to drive me insane until I found some information on this and where it came from...until I stumbled across something interesting; I found an article. This article was one of which a man before me had also been puzzled by this woman's voice. After reading what this guy wrote and what he had went through in his search for this woman and the origin of this sound bite, I have decided to give it up and I am  dropping the towel.

 

So here is the article if you dare to venture into the rabbit hole; enjoy the mystery and enjoy the read. It's actually quite fascinating.

Apparently the sound bite is in almost every 90s and early 2000's cop show there was. So it's very popular with Hollywood.
