One evening during club meeting (alcohol was involved) a 30-06 made the pole peg 100% defective. Power company replaced it, and the noise was gone ever since.
I had a similar experience at an AT&T Long Lines site in NorCal at which I had an HF station around 2004. A major wildland fire came through (started 7 days and 20 miles from our QTH) and took out about 10 poles on the feed to us. After they replaced those poles, it was a lot quieter.
I have a solid alibi -- I was in Chicago at the time. 73, Jim K9YC ______________________________________________________________ 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 Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
