Default Explain this phenomenon, please

When I pass a particular spot traveling east Northern Parkway on Long
Island, and I have my radio tuned to 88.3 I hear Howard Stern's voice
momentarily. (I once heard Quiver's voice, too.) We know that Stern is
on satellite radio now, so why would the conditions explained allow me
to hear him?


Someone in that neighborhood has a satellite radio that uses 88.3 to
transmit the audio into a regular radio. IOW you're listening to a
(very low powered!) pirate station.
