I had that once from a radio station that was a couple of miles away
from our home, with an old reel-to-reel tape recorder.  AM vs FM
station.  Have you identified the station, and how far is it from you?

Does it happen everywhere you use your 'book in your house, and oes it
happen with and without the power connected, or only one outlet or
circuit?   I talked to the station Engineer who gave me some tips on
isolating the machine so as to limit if not eliminate the problem.
(Moving the machine helped a lot.  :) )
