Re: Re: [OT] Wind Turbines
IIRC, noise is more of an issue inside the house than out - it being
transmitted through the fabric of the house and keeping you awake at
night! The other big issue is the loading on the support structure - a
turbine attached to a chimney stack for example may bring it down in
strong winds.
