''Project Origin'' actually shows why they only speak with filtered voices, as it turns out their "natural" voices sound like harsh, guttural, inhuman growling. Friendly [=NPCs=] also get this if you're beyond a certain distance from them while they're saying something.

Amping up the static is a typical way of having a message get LostInTransmission. If you get a DistressCall from a BleakBorderBase or EerieAntarcticResearchStation and in the middle of the panicked mayday call, the video screen turns to a SnowyScreenOfDeath and the audio is only static, you don't have a rescue mission, you have a cleanup! If it's done on purpose, see FakeStatic.

In the episode where Virgil's sister, Sharron, suspects he's Static, Richie obviously can't hear that Virgil has left and that Sharron is in the room because he's speaking into the shockvox. Sharron hearing Richie call Virgil Static sets off the rest of the episode.
