An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power
lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines
or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be
taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might
be fatal.
