2024-06-03 23:30:35 +0000 UTCBeen dreaming of underground cable for 30 years (not continuously, of course ). My objection to above ground installations rises from my love of amateur radio and amateur radio astronomy. If you could see radio waves, you would be blinded by the energy emitting from your utiity poles. This isn't ionizing radiation so it isn't harmful or even detectable by naked humans. But it is murderous to HF radio communication and science. Burying power and communications lines resolves a lot of issues. I hope the SGU does the deep dive on this subject.
