As you get closer and closer to a series of poles you suspect might be the cause of your noise, take along an associate with a 20 lb sledge hammer. Have him whack each pole while you listen for a change in the "sound" of the noise. I can tell you that this method works....sometimes too well. A friend who is now an SK once hit the suspect pole a good one with the result that the hardware and the line parted company with associated fireworks. Needless to say, that pole received a complete set of new hardware and the noise disappeared.
