"Rural area" doesn't help very  much. While there is relatively little equine
QRM, the power companies in  rural areas tend to "let things go." A few
cracked insulators, untrimmed  trees and the occasional electric fence can be
just as noisy as an urban  industrial neighborhood.

Miles, I have to agree with that! I recently moved fron a 'high dollar'  
neighborhood with underground utilities. Never mind the a--holes in the  
neighborhood that sued me because my towers 'did not match my house'. (they lost  the 
suit, but the death threats cost me my marriage), I moved about 5 miles into  a 
much more rural (poor) area. Although I am the last house on the power  
distribution line, I have 2 poles, that at times make any communication  
impossible. Even trying to assist those that needed help during the recent  hurricanes. 
I have called the Utility 5 times and have been told basically 'too  bad'.
If this isn't resolved soon, I will persue it through the FCC like I have  
done quite sucessfully in the past in another state.
The area I live in is a 'depressed non-caucasion' area, and the Utility  
(FPL) could not care less. I have told them that there are power lines in the  
middle (!!) of large trees but they continue to groom the power lines in more  
affluent areas.....
