Default FM radio interference from planes

104.1 FM is below the aircraft navigation and below the
communication assigned frequencies. But there are harmonic
signals that you cheap FM transmitter is not screening out.
Are you using a wired connection from the PC to the FM
transmitter or a WiFi or other radio? Most likely you're
getting the interference in that way.

You may be in violation of FCC rules.
