When we suspected a power line leak, the noise was usually continuous, not intermittent. To verify which pole it came from, we used a 8-pound sledge to whack the pole, and if the noise changed, that was the right spot. Then we would notify the electric utility, having done their work for them. That tool, BTW, had a label on it: "For Friendly Entries and Voluntary Statements" :) ---- 73 de K2ASP - Phil Kane Elecraft K2/100 s/n 5402 >From a Clearing in the Silicon Forest Beaverton (Washington County) Oregon ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
