 RayWPremium join:2001-09-01 Layton, UT kudos:1 | Throw mud, the harder the better Comtek recently went on the offensive, claimed such interference complaints had been resolved, and that ham groups like the ARRL were engaged in a "campaign to turn back the clock on broadband in the United States." "They have gone to what any fair person would say is incredible lengths to address those concerns," says COMTek spokesman Scott Stapf, who insists the complaints are "a deliberate campaign on the part of the ARRL to make an example of COMTek," and "a reflection of their generally anti-BPL philosophy." If you yell prejudice loud enough and often enough and have money to back it, people believe it.
Answer this: Why does ARRL have BPL at their headquarters? What is the difference? Why is the Navy apparently complaining about the 'obsolete' service being affected by Comtek?
And other than the military, Ham radio operators tend (not always, but usually) to be on the forefront of communications technology. -- I am not lost, I find myself every time. |
