okay, 32 years in the biz talking here.

There are 2 types of wiretaps. Legal and illegal.

If it is a legal one, you are fucked and there is no way you will know it until you have been arrested and the discovery process begins, and the prosecution tells your attorney that they had a warrant to do a wire tap on your phone.

If it is illegal, they are going to have to have installed the equipment physically on your line, at your premises. You can physically look for something odd under your house attached to the phone lines or connected to the protector on the outside of your home/business. Other than that, you can have your house professionally swept.

Most likely you have a high-resistance open/ground/short.

My advise is never say anything on the telephone that you would be bummed to see on the front page of the LA Times.
