I have had ones like that here off and on.  Usually traced to pole guy wires 
that had loose or corroded connection to the pole ground.  The utility here has 
started adding a 5' or so insulating section at the top of guy wires whenever 
they work on a pole.  This moves the metallic part of the guy farther from the 
hv wires which should reduce induced voltages on them.

A (probably) dumb question:  I have a severe line noise to my west.  For some 
reason it is manageable on 20, much worse on 15 and crippling on 10.  These 
subjective descriptions are confirmed on my S-meter. Why would this be 
happening, and does it offer any helpful clues to finding the source?
