Re: [RFI] Power Line Noise in Indonesia

[Simon Martin <simon@knaap.co.id>]

Many thanks to all that offered their help and advice to me concerning the 
power line noise I suffer here in Indonesia - I have replied to some 
off-list so as not to burden others with my replies.
I can see there aren't going to be any short cuts with this so will do as 
suggested and locate the source of the noise - then I think it will entail 
"greasing a few palms" to elicit help from guys working for the local power 
utility.

As a side note, all the residential areas here have local security guards 
to keep watch over the neighbourhoods. On the hour from midnight until five 
in the morning they walk each street under their control and give an 
electricity pole a good whack with a metal pipe to indicate what time of 
the night it is (starting with twelve for midnight!). I know it seems a bit 
strange but it indicates to all residents that the guards are doing their 
job and not sleeping. One can only imagine the damage inflicted on these 
poles that receive 27 strong hits per night 365 times per year !

I will report back when I get a resolution to this.
