My car radio goes from everything working fine to complete static on every station in like 10 feet as I drive into my local Safeway parking lot. I'm pretty sure they are jamming the signal, I just don't know why.



Some places with shopping carts have an "invisible fence" that locks up one of the wheels of the cart when you push the cart outside the property. These are usually marked with a yellow line on the ground. I presume they use some kind of RF field with an underground wire. Maybe that Safeway has some issues with theirs.
