I'm looking for land in the Tampa Bay area and have hit upon a 30 acre
parcel very nicely priced. However, scanning the area with Google Map I found
a BIG power line running east to west to the north of the property by
about 2500-3000 feet at the closest point. Of course this is the worst
direction for contesting. It appears, judging from the size of the transmission
line towers, to be maybe a around a 100 KV run.
Any thoughts on this line being as close as it is? Any first hand
experience with lines this close? I intend to check out the property first hand
when I hit the mainland, but I value members' of this reflectors opinions.
I want to be able to hear signals not RFI.
