A low hum in Belgium, Turnhout (nearby Campus Blairon)

Idling diesel engine of a truck From my investigation I find a relation with electro magnetic fields. It is like a sound, if you have multiple tones on the same frequencies you will experience a conflict in the sound. It's the same with electromagnetic fields, if you put a lot of nearby frequenties close to each other it will interference. Since earbuds are not working, it can be that the electromagnetic waves interact with our brainwaves and therefore this hum is audible. So moving is also not an option, unless you go to an area where no/less radio waves are. Just my input maybe valuable to do more research on that part.
