Next time, turn the radio at various angles and see if you can
null the noise out. Usually the top edge of the radio points
at the direction it's nulling away, and outdoors that would be
pretty horizontal most of the time, but if it's coming from the
wires in your house as well, almost any angle might be the one
you need to try.

Practice nulling a weak station in the daytime. The same thing
works on noise sources.

On the internet, nobody knows you're a jerk.


I've tried turning the radio, its a very strong interference. My primary
listening device is my stereo , which can't
be moved too much. The strange thing is that I've been in this house 5
years, almost 6 and this just started a month ago.
And its every night. In the morning its fine again. Next I will try a
different radio, or sit out in the car at 7pm to see if it happens there
too. It is a mystery.

Walk around with a portable AM radio, following the advice previously given,
(nulling the noise) and you can probably solve the mystery pretty quickly.

Things to check:
- *Anything* electrical in your house that's changed around the time the
interference started
- Walk around your property, up and down the street; it may be coming from
next door or a power pole
