I noticed in your pic that the plate is near a wall when at the edge of the

that surely exists at the edge :-)

Just a coincidence. It floats equally well all over the back side of the
rad. Besides.. that wall is corrugated. I have other pictures
of the floating plate but it is tricky to take pictures as 
it drifts off center. I could stick some nails in the fins to hold
it in place if you are interested.
