Most likely power line if it’s raspy/buzzie and you can get a beam heading on 
it on the 10 meter band.  Once that a general direction is found then walk the 
power line with an aircraft band receiver, 126 Mhz or so in AM mode.  You will 
be able to get close with it.  Take binoculars along and visual the power poles 
in the suspect area.  I have found rotten pole tops with loose hardware.  
Sometimes at night even seen the arcs.  After you are sure of the general 
location then it’s time to call the power company and go along with the noise 
tech, work together.  

That’s my two cents worth.
