The (US) National Electric Code has requirements for height of wires above
streets, and above ground in non-vehicle travel areas; however, I've seen
some pretty long antennas on MV's and they CAN be tall enough to get into
these lines. I think the height is 15' above a drive way and only 12' above
open ground. Of course most utility companies put their cables up in the
25-30 foot area, but you still get into them if you find the right
combination of small hill and long antenna.
