The 6 meter moonbouncer who lives up the hill from me told me he has no
problem from the high-tension line that runs right by his place but has
experienced noise from the lower-voltage lines farther down the hill.
I suspect that HT lines are probably less likely to have arcing than
lower-voltage lines, simply because it would be a much bigger problem
for the power company if they did.

It sounds like you're speaking of a distribution line. Do you have
any idea that the voltage is? Is there more than one pole at each
cross arm? It could be almost anything up to 240 KV ... or more.
In my semi-rural area the voltage for distribution is 14.4 KV, which
is pretty usual these days.
I have a high voltage distribution line running along my property line
that has not been a problem in the 10 years I've lived here, but there's
been other power line noise around that's radiated from other poles.
