Ah. Thanks; it's the brain thing I was thinking of. I knew the Soviets had done much research into messing with peoples' heads and I thought that it was this way they did it. I knew about the Firedrake from China.
We (the 'royal we', that is: slightly before my time!) used to operate 'barrage' transmissions from Skelton: eighteen frequencies, all with the same programme on them, so the 'what, why, where, when and how' of the news could get through to the audience before the jammers cut in - which wasn't very long.
