They are riding the lines again - a more senior lineman is hoping to
spot something not apparent to the newer guy who looked at them a
couple of weeks ago.

The pulled the arrestors, inspected the insulators, checked the
floodlight across the street - nothing they tried on the two
suspect poles made any difference.

Puzzling ... last time it was arrestors & HF became dead quiet.

It starts about 700KHz and blankets up through 60MHz on my IC-7200.

Stick with them, bring your radio, watch, talk with them and walk the
lines along with them.

I find it very informative and I learned a lot about power lines and
the work they do when I've had the power company techs out to look
for noisy poles.  I try to find the problem first as you did.

Good luck, hope your team finds it.  It is a team effort.

Awesome team at small utility coop here is sending two men & a
bucket truck tomorrow AM to chase RFI with me.

I'm pretty sure I've narrowed it to two specific poles ...
hopefully I'm correct as my methods are pretty primitive!
