Hi Gary.

You never want to assume that.  I had a friend here who had some
big lines like that and it gave him all sorts of fits.. You might
drive around with your AM car radio tuned to a frequency not
being used and see if you hear any noise.  That's how I checked
my place out before I bought it.  No noise then and none now.  73
