Default Orange Wierd translation?

Hi All,
Does anyone know what this Orange phrase actually means;-
"Con Alta de linea"
All translators give the meaning as;-
English - High Line,
Italian - High Line
German - High Tension Power
Cheers
Mike

Richie's correct, "alta" also means membership, admission to a club/organisation etc. As in "darse de alta" to join, register, sign up etc. You gotta love translators!

Which is also the opposite of baja which is low but also to leave, quit, unsubscribe, de-register etc.

Confusing, isn´t it? "Dar de alta" is to discharge, "darse de alta" is to join, sign up.
