LOL. Seriously: My 20 cents: Moving current creates a magnetic field and I believe the larger the current the greater the field. This magnetic field interferes with the electronics in your radio that pick up radio transmission. So it's not the sound waves that are disturbed but rather you radio's electronics.

Both locations seem to be near some KPLC high voltage thingy, AND a church. Could it be possible that strong spirit activity going on inside the church is interfering with the radio frequencies. Spirit activity has been known to block out the sun for 3 hours, at one time in the past :-) On Thu, May 14, 2009 at 10:08 AM, Alex Nderitu <nderitualex@gmail.com> wrote: Am no physics guru but I think it has to do with some magnetic fields distorting the radio frequencies.  -----Original Message----- From: Josiah Mugambi <jmugambi@gmail.com> Reply-to: Skunkworks forum <skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke> To: Skunkworks forum <skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke> Subject: Re: [Skunkworks] General Engineering/Physics Question Date: Thu, 14 May 2009 10:04:43 +0300 The same thing happens just after miotoni road on Ngong Road before St Francis Church where there is a power station..
