I'm lucky, I get almost no noise around here anyway, but on the battery
backup in power outages, I often find myself wondering if my antenna came
down too it's so quiet, and my usual noise is an S0, it is noticeable though
when the power goes out and it's less than that. We're all nice and spread
out around here which helps, and none of my neighbors are ever home to
either side of me or across the street which also helps.
