Why is that an issue?

#7Amplitude Modulation, or AM, works by modulating the sound on the "peaks and valleys" of the frequency. If you were to look at the waveform of the carrier frequency, you would see it as variance in the "power levels" of the signal, going higher and lower depending on what's being sent.
Because of how AM works, you can actually hear what's being transmitted by causing an electrical arc. It's the same concept of hearing a "buzz" from high voltage power lines, except in a controlled fashion to produce sound.

I guess it is because of the use of amplitude modulation [1], where the envelope ("strength") of the carrier (that is some higher frequency signal) follows the signal that is modulated onto it (speech, in this video). With say FM it wouldn't work, I presume.

#9Even better: some crazy Russian/Ukrainian kids listening to the local radio station through weeds (and occasionally getting some minor RF burns): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=82s5Q3GIO9I

Same way as a plasma speaker
