We get 3 pulses in groups of 3 that come thru my PC speakers and the radio sometimes... It seems to happen most when our cell phones are in close proximity. It'll also happen sometimes before receiving an incoming call. I've also had it happen to my car radio. In my case I think it's just radio interference... it's like dert,dert-dert,... dert,dert-dert,... dert,dert-dert...
Can you describe the pattern you hear?

Interesting. I'd turn off your cells tonight (if that's an option) or just keep them in a room far from the devices you pick up the signal on. Then see if you still receive it.
Do you live in the country or in the city?...

Is your tv set by cable or satellite transmission? Do you have a vcr attached to it? Have you made all your connections properly? If you have a satellite tv system was it properly installed? For example is the dish facing correctly and has the software been properly configured?
If it is normal antenna on roof is it in good condition? Is the cable in good condition and properly fitted into tv?
If you got local cable tv is the box functioning properly or has anything been abused?
Do you have any devices next to the tv such as microwave oven, radios, computers, phones, metallic objects, etc? If so make sure they are some distance away! Also, any wifi or bluetooth network in your house?
There are probably many reasonable explanations if you stop and think a while. What I have noticed with my satellite tv system is that when there is heavy cloud coverage in the area I temporarily lose the signal for a few seconds or even minutes. Also, solar flare activity is known to cause temporary signal distortion and interuption.
I would check this stuff out before starting to get paranoid. Also, ask your neighbors if they are having similar problems!

Pretty close to that, but never with an incoming cell phone call
