[RFI] 7.2kv Single Phase

[Charles Plunk]

Since I made the goof sending the other email, will update the list.

The power co visited last Thursday. They replaced a fused/disconnect on 
the pole. They showed me the hairline crack it had in the porcelain. 
This would explain why back in the spring the mounting bolt for that 
device was arcing to the nearby stapled ground (which they moved for me 
since I saw the arc with binoculars, heard with ultrasonic, and it fixed 
that for months) and why this fall I tracked to another area of the 
stapled ground/same pole. I am encouraged but dry weather below 60% 
humidity will tell more for certain and when the more potent source is 
fixed which I am currently finished hunting and waiting for repairs.

Now for it (different pole), which is what I sent the email to the list 
meaning to be sent to the power co engineer. Waiting for them to fix 
that one but triangulating it with 450mhz was even more enlightening as 
to this pole is almost certain the issue.

As I get time, will update my web pages to hopefully explain better. I 
have made 3 separate webpages for these 3 issues, 2 of which I now know 
may have had one ultimate cause (the cracked fused/disconnect).
