[TowerTalk] Tower location and house noise

[john at kk9a.com]

There are usually compromises on tower location. Parts of your property may
be physically more suited for a tower, your XYL may not want to sit on the
deck and stare straight at a tower, etc. A tower 100 feet from the house is
not far at all. If you are putting this tower up at your FL QTH, it will
likely be hit by lightning. The further it is from the house the less
induction issues you will likely have inside.

Guys,
 
I'm wondering if some of you locate your tower(s) away from the  shack for 
the single purpose of minimizing man made  noises?  I have K9YC's material 
on reducing man made noises but I  haven't had a lot of success.  I'll soon 
be constructing a new  tower and am wondering if it's worth placing the
tower 
a 100' from the  shack in hopes of reducing man made noises?
 
Thanks & 73,
