The problem for me with testing is that I (too) have a pretty good signal where I life (Actually orignating about 300m away ;) ), so that if there is buzz it is relatively silent. To reproduce it reliably I just went into the cellar and did a longer test call. Interestingly the buzz was sometimes pretty loud and sometimes hardly present which did not seem to coincide with the signal strength. Actually once I noticed the buzz getting louder when the signal got stronger oO. What I annoyingly had all the time was a pretty loud echo though :(.
As for the shorted plug: If there is buzz it amplifies it a tiny bit, if there is no buzz it doesn't seem to induce buzz, but it definitely does not seem to make things better. > Oh ...
