Imagine if a medium size business would sell a device which puts out dirty rf like cellphones do, the FCC would be all over them. That`s why they ask you to turn these off during approach or departure when the pilot has to communicate with ATC. All it takes is to call your number and there can easily be interference mahem in his headset. And the FCC does nothing against it! Just try and see if you were to make a DIY transmitter that does that...you would be in handcuffs!
LMAO! The same thing happened to me last night and most of today! I was freaking out, I thought I had to take my car to get fixed. I had realized I had left my spare phone in the Center Console also! It went off at 4am! I have an older Viper system! I realized where I parked my car, this particular network struggled for signal, I wonder if that played a part! Its crazy how these things work out, thanks for posting, its provides some reassurance that I won't be awaken tonight!
Thanks but then the problem is that putting a "Faraday Cage" around the alarm controller would likely also block the signal from my car alarm remote from unlocking the door as well.
I just took my phone out of the car and it stopped going off by itself.

your towels are dirty , buy some soap
then buy/make a Faraday cage for alarm box. use metal screen, and ground it.
the cell phone is licensed to transmit, did you think the CELL used magic
ESP or brain waves?
not only that it varies power (higher) as you get further from the CELL tower.
nice testing BTW,

Fcc warning:
"This device may cause signal interference, which in some cases may be undisired"
You could put sheets of copper around the box to stop this problem.
