surges.
POWER LINES - An outside antenna system should not
be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or
other electric tight or power circuits, or where it can
fall into such power lines or circuits. When install-
ing an outside antenna system, extreme care should
be taken to keep from touching such power lines or
circuits as contact with them might be fatal.
