Sorry, but this is wrong. Joint use of the electric systems poles is 
nothing more than a lease agreement. No responsibility for the
maintenance of the leasee's hardware falls to the electric system.

BTW I am one of those guys who say don't kick/hit the wood 
poles with any thing.
First off you will get very little change in the noise level, and secondly
you may be at the wrong pole. Until you have spent some time (a few
months) riding around with a proper utility RFI suppression crew
you are just shooting blind. (and probably annoying the crews)
