I've heard rumors of testing in this area, but they've largely evaporated. That's the way it should be. BPL pollution can leave if it likes, and it won't be missed.

To any hams who have to deal with this stuff, I still say, 1.5KW amps and long ragchews. Point the beam at your nearest BPL repeater and call CQ for a while. 73 DE AE6YD.
Sad but true, the FCC would site Hams for jamming in that case, and let the Part 15 a$$h0!es continue to break the law.

The ARRL needs to buy FCC chair Kevin Martin a life, but unfortunately they are a non-profit organization and don't have the funds. :(

Unfortunately, I run in emergency mode - portable antenna, a 53 AH battery, and a FT897D. BPL would kill my operation and my puny signal would not affect it one bit.
