Re: Remembering a Big Solar Flare March 8, 1989

Martin, you mentioned electronic equipment getting out of whack, and  
strange things happening to it.  Well, I have a small heater I keep on  
a shelf in my bedroom for those nights it gets too cold for simple  
blankets and feather beds to cope.  What I find, is that during the  
times this heater is running, (generally around 2-4 am timeframe) I  
can hear a radio station faintly coming from the heater when it's  
running.  It's not loud enough to record, since the heater noise  
drowns it out mostly), but it is noticable, and although I have yet to  
hear a station id during the time it's been active, I find it  
interesting that it happens anyway.  I've been tempted a time or two  
to get my regular radio, and try to match the station before the  
heater turns off again, but being it happens in the middle of the  
night, and I'm usually too cold to crawl out of bed if I don't need  
to, it's remained only an idle thought.
