Someone made a negative comment when I said one should
keep his tower twice the distance from power lines. I read that
rule in a tower instruction book. I think I will stick to that advice
regardless of who makes fun of me for saying so. As a lawyer,
I have observed manufacturers often protect themselves from
liability by putting warnings in the instruction manual. Usually,
those warnings are put in after someone has made a claim. I
do not plan to be another claimant, so I figure if the mfr makes
a warning, it must be for a reason.
It is important for us to take heed of such stories - if only to serve
as a reminder of how dangerous it is.
