FWIW, they did recently boost the voltage on some high tension lines from
250 k to 500 k - would that make that much noise ?
Yes, if the associated equipment is not up to snuff to handle the increased
voltage, insulators and the like.
How close are these lines? I shudder to think of living anywhere near that type
of line while pursuing the radio hobby.

Speaking of the tropical bands, I haven't been able to get much on them
lately. I'm hearing a loud buzz all across the lower freqs, but I can't
seem to narrow down where it's coming from.
I hear that @#$% noise up here in Washington state too, and don't know
what
it is. I'd love to know what it is - anybody know definitively what it
is ?
Perhaps a powerline problem?
