What? Are you one of those people that like to sound smart by using ridiculous political sentence structure to "only Sound" smart? enough all ready, your post makes no real world sense.

Ok, just for you.

1. The FCC is the group that thought BPL was a such a good idea, YEAH VERILY - the very holy grail of BB to the masses, despite the many engineering facts and laws of physics that ruled against it. Now they are going to a random (and it is random in the overall geographical sense) RF interleaving that may or may not be in conflict with various regions and the established broadcast pattern (which does not always match what the regulators declare it to be). And to do this they are using a sensing/blocking technology that while it is viable, is questionable when corners are cut for the low end Joe/Jane Six Pack budget devices.

2. Big money went to making the FCC blind to facts for BPL and probably for this too.

3. NAB has not (to my knowledge paid the big dollars that the 'telecommunications' giants have paid in this arena.

4. I think the party that rules the legislative branch is obvious, although it is a slim rule. The President has some power, but not as much as a lot of folks think, so the parties are essentially balanced, hence they (the NAB) have to split the graft to get any protection. At least if they want another law passed to protect them they will pay.

5. Most bills passed by the legislative branch usually have so many riders that the main bill is a smoke screen for graft and featherbedding. Hence any bill that has the approval of many here may get killed because of the hidden items that you have to go out and actually read the bill to see, hence the President will be bad mouthed again because most people only see the initial bill, not the added on slime underneath that can turn good bills bad.

Sorry I did not get that verbal the first time instead of keeping it simple, but all this has been hashed over many times in various ways on this site.
