A conversation with a friend made me suddenly recall that when I was a kid in the early 80’s, we could occasionally hear a faint rendition of the major local AM station coming from the faucet of the kitchen sink. We lived just a mile or two from the broadcast antenna.
It was very faint and had a spooky sizzling quality, but it was unmistakable. Our wall-mounted telephone also picked it up, but more distinctly. I can understand the telephone noise reason, as there’s an amplifier and speaker. But a faucet? How?

This used to happen to me and my wife in our first house. It was very close to a massive AM radio tower in SW Ohio and we could faintly hear voices all around the house, especially in the kitchen at night. It scared the shit out of her and took us years to figure out.
