| reply to mlmurray Re: Where's the interference in all these trials?
agreed, i want to see what interference is caused and how much interference instead of hearing it is being debated, i like the idea of BPL if it works and that is the key, without harmful interference, which in my case harmful would be considered disruption of emergency signals after a catastrophe. -- xbox live gamer tag niplet |

| Niplet,
In the article, the Energy company, Fietz, acknowledges interference.
"Country Energy's Fietz said he was aware of the side effects of BPL transmissions: "We have had a number of approaches from HF users. We are treating it [radio interference] seriously...""
As far as how much, I believe the ARRL has some documentation on how much interference. As far as documentation from providers, I believe it is kept classified due to the nature of the trials in the US.

| reply to niplet i think everyone took what i posted the wrong way, i was not trying to say it did not cause interference, what i was trying to say was that i was for it if it DID NOT cause a disruption in emergencies, i have not researched this in a while and nor have i seen any reports on an emergency situation as of yet. i know for one if i/anyone was in an accident and the only way for me/victim to get help was from someone with a ham radio radioing in for help, then no it should not be allowed. -- xbox live gamer tag niplet |
