I have an anecdote, which isn't mine but comes from someone I know personally. This guy was working as a service tech, and was called out to diagnose a problem with a computer that had been recently moved. It worked most of the time, but any attempt to use the tape drive failed within a certain number of seconds (this was long ago, when tape drives were still a thing). Everything had worked fine before the move, and diagnostics didn't show anything out of place. Then he happened to look out the window - this was a military installation, and there was a radar dish rotating nearby. The failures occurred exactly when the radar dish was pointed their direction. It turns out the computer had been moved up one floor, which strengthened the interference just enough to cause the failure.
