BPL could/would work if there was as much time and effort put INTO it as in trashing it. READ THIS EXCERPT... "Chief Executive Officer David Sumner, K1ZZ expressed appreciation for Motorola's approach to the thorny issue of radio interference from BPL systems. In an effort to minimize interference, particularly to the Amateur Radio bands, Motorola designed its Powerline LV system in close cooperation with the League's technical staff, Sumner noted. A test stand Access BPL system was in operation briefly at ARRL Headquarters. Measurements and subjective listening tests on the ham bands showed that Powerline LV was Amateur Radio-friendly."

Those are the systems that are the problem and many refuse to admit there is any interference. |

Those are the systems that are the problem and many refuse to admit there is any interference. Why not focus on BPL that has been found to work well, and which sought the input of enthusiasts in order to balance competing interests? That seems more constructive the vitriolic remarks that seem to predominate from amateur radio enthusiasts, giving the impression there is *no* room for any BPL? That's not really an honest depiction of the problem nor the league's official position (considering their involvement).
Maybe I missed it. But, I would never have gotten from all the partisanism that the real problem is just *some* BPL. All the comments I've read is that it's an either/or proposition.
You guys should focus more on the positive, accomodating possibilities, not reactionary under siege behavior. (IMO).
