Which mechanism causes reduced radio transmission range when a high-voltage transmission line experiences corona discharge near a broadcasting antenna?

💡 Explanation

Capacitive interference reduces transmission range because the corona discharge creates ionized air, increasing the capacitance between the power line and antenna; therefore radio signal energy shunts to the power line, rather than propagating freely.
