Actually only the morse operators will have half a
chance of operating if the BPL goes through. They
need the least amount of signal to be able to
communicate. I am primarily a phone operator. I
need to get my comments in. Off to do that now.

You might as well as **** into a hurricane
force wind. BPL will happen and ham
radio will go the way of the dinosaurs. America
can't let a few thousand morse
code fanatics stop modern technology for
millions of consumers. If there were 2
or 3 million active ham radio operators then
that might make a difference, but
for decades the ARRL has done everything to keep
people out of the HF bands by
forcing the stupid morse code requirements down
the throats of the average
consumer that has no interest in morse code.
The morse code fanatics among ham radio
operators dug their own grave and have
no on else to blame. BPL is progress for
America, ham radio is the old
technology.
