Topband: Bev. and power lines.

[Neil G0JHC]

I would be interested to hear how "close" any one has put a Beverage to the
base of a  power line tower (which is radio quiet) before they have started
to couple noise in to the receiver.

 

I am not talking about the 11kv or so lines on 30ft wooden poles, but the
big 100kv+     100-150ft towers lines. 

 

Have any of you had experience of this?

 

I would obviously never put a Bev. under the lines, but wonder how close
subscribers  have got and "got away with it". Or have  had to pull back
until the noise has gone.

 

20m? 50m? 100m?

 

I am aware of the safety issues and have those covered.

 

Thanks for your experiences.  Good or bad.
