Many years ago I used to listen to shortwave broadcasts on a table AM/FM
radio to which I'd coupled a longwire by wrapping the end around the
ferrite. What had happened was that I was now presenting HF frequencies
to the mixer and it was doing harmonic mixing making a number of the
stronger shortwave broadcasts on 49/31 meters, etc. quite audible across
the AM BCB.
It could be that this was occurring due to a nearby HF station's RF
getting into the car radio - but it would have to be *very* nearby:
Perhaps a perusal of QRZ would be in order.
