[TowerTalk] Tower location and house noise

[Ken]

My quietest antenna is my 40' vertical.  It is usually more quiet than 
anything  else (500' loops, inverted Vee's, dipoles, OCF, etc.

Of course loops are supposed to be quiet and verticals noisy, we all 
"know" that.

However, my vertical is 100' away from the house, most of the other 
antennas are closer to the house.  I do have one 100' dipole that is a 
bit further away than the vertical but I have not noticed it being any 
quieter than the other antennas.

I have plenty of room for antennas, I have 128 acres here.  I could try 
putting something up 500' away but I figure the feedline losses would do 
me in.
