    95% of American and Canadian homes have 7 Kilovolts of AC within 60-100 feet.
    Its single wire earth return, too! Which means the 7KV returns to the nearest power station via a grounding rod at the base of the pole. But the transformer is way, way, up in the air and the wood poles are hard to climb. The transformer looks somewhat like a world standard beer keg in size.

    Yet we have few incidents. What actually flows into the home is center tapped 220V ac, now normalized to 235-240 volts in new construction.

    And you would not, perchance, be the guy in Barcelona who did the old, never spoken of, "Human Motion" plugin for Pangolin would you?

    I ran UV on an excel 3500 for a short time just to see if it worked.
    It gave miserable output so I gave up.

    3500s are Lexel's experimental DIGITAL DOGMEAT! I pity you for even owning one!

    Human Motion was a cool program. Way beyond my budget at the time and way ahead of its time. Shame it did not catch on.
