Topband: Rx Loop and Tower Radiating Noise?

[Steve McDonald]

Just wonder if anyone else has run into this problem. Using a loop on RX, I
find a huge source of noise pointing towards the tower (about 40'
away)...mostly 60Hz/hash noise. If I kill ALL power to my propery, the tower
still radiates this noise.
Is this common/uncommon with towers/loops? What causes it and is there a
cure?
Power lines out on the road and neighbours are all quiet...just the tower
loops as the noise source.
