Mike,
Understand that the dish helps zero in on the specific piece of the
system that's arcing. But that's the power company's job, and by
identifying the pole or the immediate area where the problem is, they'll
find it. And doing their work for them is unlikely to get it fixed any
faster. Indeed, power companies are fairly willing to come out and
troubleshoot a problem if they think it might be dangerous or indicate
equipment failure that could lead to a system event. But getting it
fixed can be a very different matter, because the working groups and
managers responsible for do that are often rewarded for using less of
their annual budgets, so if it isn't judged likely to cause any problem
other than in your radio, it's very unlikely that it will be fixed.
