Oh shit they did a rendition of "Remember this Name" (probably one of the most incredible music moments in the game) AND they did the final 'catch' music!

It certainly looks like an angry teenager!

While the fixes to our RFI installed by SA Power Networks have certainly improved matters, we're still seeing residual RFI showing up on hot days. Whether this is some other mechanism, or just from a different like I'm not sure yet.

This is probably the best way I can explain it. 19 kV AC couples capacitively through the insulators. Ideally this would just be grounded, but if the electrical connection between the insulators is poor, it can result in flashover and broadband EMI.

Another look at the installation of these. You can see the tech getting ready to insert the wire brush (already dipped in grease) into one of the joints.
