Don't Put That There
Radio stations are not the worst environments for interferences among equipment and humans... television stations were even harder to tame during the days when human engineers sat within several feet of an entire wall of cathode ray tubes (CRTs) soaking in X-radiation until their dental work fell apart and colon cancers broke out. The engineers of the time knew about it but had no other careers by which to support their families.
Full power radio studios tended to be less hazardous except for transmitter engineers exposed to high RF fields.
No such scares exist for the low power radio hobbyist but equipment placement can still pose problems.
Antennas located too close to certain equipment can result in RF buzz getting into audio, to name a common occurrence.
Air monitors (tuners / radios) can reproduce lots of hash from nearby power supplies, computers and computer monitors.
Human operators in the near-field of receiving and transmitting antennas often cause noisy multi-path which exhibits itself by de-tuned radios and loud racket sent by devils hiding in the walls.
Religious radio stations I have worked for use prayer to address technical problems and when it fails to work they are confident that it's because of God's will.
