If primary power line carrying noise, you are gonna pick it up well with parallel wire antenna.   Maybe less intense if grounded quarter wave vs. self-resonant ungrounded half wave?

 It probably doesn't matter Al, the lines are likely in your antennas near field and thus coupled. Maybe they will enhance the radiation of some of your RF. [:-)
