Today, I was out along Hwy 530 west of Darrington, WA. My car radio was off. The selector was last set on FM. I drove under the big power lines that cross over the road, the radio came on the AM band by itself and the digital clock had zeroed back to 1200 as the default setting.
This happened in another (similar but not the same) car about a week or two ago, same exact scenario. I don't remember the circumstances or surroundings when that happened.
Previously, I've never had this happen before, in any car.
In the case of what happened today, I imagine this has something to do with the magnetic field created by the power lines. I wonder why I've never experienced this before, then twice lately.
