Mike, dont you have a High Tension cabin in that direction?.
I observed this phenomena, but there is such a HT cabin at about fourty
yards from the foot of my sixty-five foot tower. But noise can be worst
when the cabin is situated at a longer distance.
What do we do when BPL will be there.?
Have fun
