I have my LOWFER antenna 150 feet from my home and power lines but it still
picks up a/c noise which I think is leaky insulators on the power lines.  My
noise level is always much lower after it has been raining.

Looks like some A/C noise on the Grabber tonight. Seen that lately. 
X-mas lights causing it? I get some holiday lighting noise here every 
winter but it goes away pretty soon after X-Mas time. At least the 
neighbor's don't have those flashing lights this year. Those things 
cause more noise than the on all the time versions.
