Stephanie,

No, it is definitely NOT corona. Corona is an EHV phenomenon, and appears only 
on transmission lines, not distribution lines such as the lines you described 
in a residential neighborhood. Plus, corona does not make the type of noise 
heard on your video. (ref: "AC Power Interference Handbook" by Marv Loftness SK 
KB7KK)

I would suggest engaging your local ARRL Section to see if they have an RFI PLN 
Technical Specialist to assist you in determining the source and resolving the 
noise. You can track it down yourself if you are handy and have the equipment 
and there are many resources on the Internet that describe the process.

Hope this helps.
