In the 1970s medium wave used to have very loud bursts of noise on it on all mains powered sets. Never on a battery set even if it was indoors. Car radios were obviously not effected.
Tarmac.
When I lived in the south it was in an area close to the center of town.
Within ear shot they resurfaced a shopping street on a Sunday.
On the Monday morning well before the phantom skid marks had appeared and 18 hours from completion of the resurfacing the tell tail sound of the air tools were heard and as soon as I got there to have a look they had already dug a hole three feet deep in the less than a day old tarmac. The tarmac must have still been warm. The phantom skid mark driver must have been devastated.
