If BPL actually used the wireless spectrum you might have a valid argument, but it doesn't, it just pollutes it and makes it unusable for actual users of the spectrum.
That's not true. See:

BPL is for the most part unnecessary and obsolete. Cable and DSL coverage is more ubiquitous and cable and fiber provide more bandwidth.
Then the marketplace will resolve it.

To sum it up, you favor a technology that hasn't gotten off the ground in ten years,
No. I oppose blind extremism.

No, it's true. You can't escape the laws of physics. BPL will emit whatever frequencies it's using. Notching isn't a silver bullet, it just moves the interference to other frequencies and carriers will undoubtedly turn off notching anyways once capacity becomes an issue. ARRL has been working with a few vendors for quite awhile and some vendors have better systems than others; it's no news flash to those of us who have been following BPL. By the way, Motorola pulled out of Access BPL.

And as we've seen with this article, it is.

Call it what you like in an effort to discredit us, but most of us have been studying BPL longer than you've been a member here and understand it quite well. Several of us have actually seen systems in operation and have measured emissions (I can identify chipsets by listening to the sounds and identify some systems by looking at the equipment on the pole). It seems you're here more to pick a fight than actually debate anything of substance. If you don't favor BPL then you're really wasting your time here.

I see Marky-boy hasn't taken up my invitation, preferring to believe what politicians tell him rather than what REAL world science does. You're arguing with a fool, rf_engineer - please do not let him drag you too down to his level. Mark, my original invitation stands:

»BPL is not goin to help people who save lifes

What have you read so far?
