Used to find this at BBC Washford on the Doherty transmitters if the l/4 carrier-peaker network went off tune slightly, the second harmonic would shoot up and put BBC Radio 1 right in the fishfone emergency channel on 2178kHz. We would soon get a call from the Portishead radio station!

Don't know what sort of transmitter Radio City uses but might be worth checking on another receiver and, if you receive second harmonic, getting in touch with Radio City to tell them.
