Yep, here's a quote from the mainstream:

"Virtually all materials, including water and dirt particles
in the air, can be triboelectrically charged."

Given charged dirt (dust) particles encountering a bare-wire
dipole, all the rest is simple physics.

Cecil,

You have now revealed the root cause of the controversy. Try using real
physics instead of simple physics.

Prove that this causes radio frequency noise, Cecil.

Already have previously in this thread, Tom. I even
drew you guys some pictures. Maybe you should actually
read what I have posted instead of continuing to do
nothing but regurgitate your gut feelings over and
over and over ...
