Patrick,
I'm glad they found it. I remember battling power line noise for five months
in 1972, and I'm not sure anyone "found' it, it ultimately went away, but if
the power folks had persisted, maybe it could have been a few weeks instead
of a few months.

Would you believe it turned out to be an electric fence? That's right! A
bare down wire against the downspout. Apparently an "always on" AC unit,
that transferred noise. I would have never guessed that! I have seen
electric fencing arc, but nothing like a sold S9+10 DB hash which even
the power guys thought it was classic powerline noise. They found it. I
am so pleased with PP&L. They do great work!
