said by Transmaster :Well who paid off this clown. Then the accusation should be applied to all 5 FCC commissioners, not just Martin. Not 1 of the 5 spoke out against this ruling. And the 4 that did comment individually, agreed it was good to let BPL go forward. And they all said the ARRL should not be worried because they will keep an eye on interference issues.
I don't agree with them that BPL will become this great new broadband competitor, however. BPL will never be anything but a niche player and won't become the savior of rural broadband - the economics just isn't there. -- -- Join Red Room Forum BLOG tkjunkmail.blogspot.com My Web Page |

| I think the FCC is making the market force the providers to lessen the interference. They basically don't want to mess with it, though they probably should.
It kinda makes sense, though. Let the BPL providers come out and see where they go with it. If they can't keep interference emmissions low then people complain and they get fined. FCC has more income while letting the market force the provider to comply. |

If the power companies think they can interfere a little bit now, they will go farther. Market forces will not help but hurt the situation when people compalin they aren't being served fast enough speeds or enough bandwidth.
Right now, the Motorola system is the ONLY one that doesn't interfere. Others do and they must be shut down. |

Just like this will be. -- Toolmaster of La Grange. |
