2 Radio Stations + Quite?!
Question: 2 Radio Stations + Quite!?
there are 2 or 3 radio stations within a mile radius of us and almost each night when its quite in the house, no sound from anywhere, i can hear music from my room!. Not rap or rock or anything like that, just instrumental music or something about like it!. I can even some times hear a phone ring and i even hear someone answer it, but it doesn't sound like a real person, it sounds like its an automated ring and an automated answering!. Its not like i can hear them talking on the phone, i only hear them answer it!.
My question is, is it possible for someone to hear this coming from one of the radio stations!. I think i'm picking up the signal through my antenna, because one time when my antenna was in analog mode and when i got a certain distance away from it my body mass would cause my tv to pick up a radio signal/frequency, so i think my ears are picking it up from there even with the TV cut off!. My nephew says i might be picking up his high school radio station because they are about a mile from us!.
I don't ever remembering this happening where we use to live because we weren't so close to town!. By "this happening" i mean both the "my tv picking up a radio signal/frequency" and my ears doing the same thing!.
Do to my body mass, i've been able to mess with TV signals with the antenna set at certain frequencies, only this time i'm also picking up radio frequency since i'm so close to them!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

Answers:
First, your body can act as an antenna!.
So the obvious question is: do any of the stations near you broadcast the instrumental music you're hearing!? If so, then something in your room (perhaps your computer or TV speakers) could be picking up RF or even the regular signal and making it slightly audible to you!. You may also have especially sensitive hearing!.
None of that would explain the conversations or phone noise, unless you are also picking up the in-house intercom and perhaps the on-hold music is instrumental!. Many stations have the phones rigged so the DJ can speak into his mic and hear the other end of the phone conversationon on his headphones, then decide if he wants to air the call by throwing a switch!. Could be some bleed there that you are hearing!.
So some of what you say is technically possible, but not very likely!. There have been other similar questions about bodies acting as antennas and stations bleeding into nearby homes recently!.
Sherman, are you sure you're not shining us!?
BTW: it's quiet!. Not quite, quite!.
