Doug,
First of all, that isn’t quite true. Common mode rejection of an receiver RF
input is not perfect. But it is almost true, so let's call that part good.
But, these common mode currents on the shield travel and radiate. Therefore,
they get to your antenna, and THEN they ARE on the center conductor. You hear
them.

The RF current your receiver responds to flows on the inside of the outer
shield of the coax transmission line, so what difference does it make what
currents may be flowing on the outside of the shield?
