I heard that exact noise before Wes. I went up and down street &
grabbed the guy wire going to electrical poles while shacking the pole I
found an insulator arching. Tracked it down with mobile rig in car.
Gave power company the pole number and had it fixed within a week. Like
the idea of waiting until dark to see the arching. Might be faster
doing that, but that noise is one I will always remember.
Now if I could just get noise out of Rheem heat pump coming from
blower. Got external fan noise fixed with torrid core coils. Stay away
with heat pumps that use d.c. motors!
