What's this thread about?
I understood there was talk of interference but in a generic sense, so yes ... It is a topic full of interference of an unspecified nature. At least I think so...

Try to keep up. It’s about how the Knights Templar are connected to the founding fathers and the Illuminati, and how the lizard people are injecting microchips via vaccines into our bodies in order to use 5G signals to make us vote for the [insert your least favorite group here] causing mass disruptions to our economy. And I think radio signals from the Ark of the Covenant are causing tinnitus.

It’s pretty simple, but you can’t miss a post.

While researching tinnitus for my wife I came across this. It has nothing to with tinnitus but I thought it was interesting. I wonder if the stop sign or the GT in this case was acting as a speaker? This is the track Jess was taking at the beginning of the thread.

"AM is a wild thing,"...

"Berger said the Smiths may have to hire an experienced engineer to pinpoint the issue, using special tools to measure the signal and block it. Berger said an expert can also check inside the wall for corroded piping or duct work, or the placement of metal."

"The metal could act like a speaker," Berger explained. "That is what they are hearing."

Thanks.

It's like so much in my life. If I just pay better attention things are so much clearer.

Knights Templar? I thought it was the Masons.

BTW, there really are lizard people.

Maybe it was this...
Code groups over HF/Shortwave radio. They're all over the band, in different languages.

As to the OP question, Occam's Razor applies. Somebody with a sound system, out of sight, and the sound was traveling.

I live over 2 miles from a local coffee shop that does outdoor concerts on summer nights, usually just an amplified single guitar and a vocalist, and I can hear the music clearly on my patio. I also live over 3 miles from a local high school stadium and can hear the bands playing at halftime. Sound carries a long ways in still air.

Jess,

I think Jess has the answer. There is a large Radio Broadcasting Tower on the edge of
the metro area in Minneapolis. If you drive close to it, their rock and roll music will
over ride your current radio station being played in your car. I have even heard their
music when the radio was turned off. Further, when you pick up your (Land Line Phone)
the dial tone is over taken by the rock music from this tower.

Also, there is atmospheric skip. Under clear night weather conditions, a radio signal
can bounce off the upper atmosphere and show up clear across the country. I
was driving in the middle of the night in Wyoming with my radio on to a local soft
rock radio station. All of a sudden my soft rock station was over taken by a talk
radio show WCCO from Minneapolis. I knew WCCO because I am from Minneapolis.

So, Jess has it. No one is crazy. They got zapped by a +1000 Watt Radio Signal. There
are some religious radio stations in the South that transmit at 50,000 Watts.

When I was a kid we’d pick up the “500,000 Watt Clear Channel Voice” of WLW in Cincinnati 100 miles away on appliances, faucet screens, etc. every kid had a crystal radio in a cardboard ring box in his pocket listening to the Reds at Crosley Field. At some point, they had to reduce power to 50,000 W.

Sorta like Wolfman Jack on the half-million Watt station across the border in Mexico.

https://www.amusingplanet.com/2019/03/wlw-500-kilowatt-super-station.html?m=1

Now I hear sounds all the time, not just on my scooter, due to tinnitus and hearing loss. I apparently don’t have the vintage Dodgers station, though. 😉

EDIT: I guess I should have read my own link. It was already 50,000 Watts by the time I arrived. Still could hear it in appliances and faucet, though.
