Someone proposed this a while ago, but Fabrice Bellard (who is also

a valid DVB-T signal.

I sure wish I could remember where to find it, but I've seen demonstrated a program that would generate valid AM waveforms by displaying certain pictures on a video screen. You'd enter a target frequency (I think in the HF range) and choose a MIDI sound file, and it would "modulate" the CRT display to emit RFI at that frequency with the tones riding as AM modulation. Very spooky. It was a demonstration of the security hazards associated with CRT displays (TEMPEST stuff) in a very palpable way.
