My neighbor used to have a chain link fence that generated electrical
noise when the wind blew. I didnt realize what was making all the pops
until the house sold and the new owner put up a wooden fence.

Oh, yeah!

This past summer I had occasion to haul some bundled antenna sections on the
roof rack of my van. I was astonished at the BCB intermod that was generated
with every vibration. I think the principal frequency intermoding was a
broadcast station about two miles from the start of my trip, since the
intermod got less and less as I got further away.

I'm familiar with intermods near transmit antennas, having dealt with EMI on
USN ships for many years, but two miles?!?!?
