" Hmmmm.... I know that RF climbs all over a person really well, but glass?
I'd have to guess it was the frame for the cover, not the glass, that did
weird stuff...
If there was indeed a cage over the thing. If it was just glass, with maybe
a hold down clamp, i'd be stumped about the 'Why' par tof it.

I would suspect that the AC wiring to the top socket in the beacon is
radiating.
