The marketing hype is cheap broadband for the rural areas. Economic reality
is that it will probably never be extended into the rural areas even if some
suburban areas do go for it.

You have the "studies" to prove this as a fact?

Every single transformer between the injection
point of the signal and the end user must be bypassed with the BPL signal
for that signal to work.

Of course you KNOW the EXACT CHARACTERISTICS of "a BPL
signal," don't you?

I don't and won't presume to guess. But, you are AUTHORIZED by the
FCC to "legally interfere with any unlicensed service (of any kind)" and
are therefore blameless.

If you only have one user every few miles, it will
never pay off. And of course you've mentioned the power and/or signal
boosters required. Periodic boosters all along the line will be needed.

Ah so, the federal authorization magically makes all amateurs into
technical experts who KNOW things all through answering a few
questions and passing a morse code test.

Must be that new "interest" thing in hum radio.
