Re: BPL interference had been ironed out already !!! It's late, so I will be brief. Given the propagation of HF radio waves, interference can occur outside of the service area.
Since 9/11, we haven't had another terrorist attack here in the NYC area. Although that is comforting, I don't think that the threat is less real. (Of course I am not equating BPL and the horrific events of 9/11, but you get my point.)
I would also not assume that because the BPL provider denies any instances of interference, that this means that there wasn't. I don't mean to paint them all with the same wide brush, but several BPL providers clearly played with the facts and figures in their favor.
Furthermore, I don't hope for a plane to crash before folks will agree to look at the concerns related to the propagation of RF across unshielded power lines.
Be well, Rob |
