[Fourlanders] Street Lights Buzzing

My biggest noise source is all the new LED based traffic signals.  They put
out g-d awful hash, and GDOT won't fix them! I have sent a letter to the
FCC, but no response yet.

Hi Guys,
 
Maybe one of you has chased this problem?    
 
Thanks in advance for any help,

I have a noise issue I have been chasing since I started using 6M regular.  
The buzzing noise turns off and on at different intervals and is on
for about the same amount of time.  I only hear this during the dark hours,
in the 46 to 66 MHz range SSB and to the south.  The colder and dryer it is,
the stronger  the noise is, sometimes reaching 7 s-units.  If I turn the
yagi due north the band it total quiet.  When it cycles off, the band is
quiet south also, only south GA and North FL folks who think I am deaf.
 
 I think I am hearing the street lights, and since I live in a hilly area
the car headlights turn the lights off and they have to restart.   Really
late at night the time between the noise is longer as there is less traffic.
 
 
Anyone have any thoughts?   Or a understanding contact at Cobb EMC?
