Your most important words whe "Critical Services", does the FCC
consider amateur radio such a service?

That my friends is a very important question. How much do they value
our knowledge and volunteer emergency services?

The FCC tune has already changed. Read the article at:

Notice the FCC statement "...Powell responded to the question by saying
the FCC would not let BPL interfere with critical services."

Now the protection appears to have migrated to "critical" services only,
and the burden of proof is thus shifted to amateur radio to show how our
service is "critical" and worthy of protection against the
best-thing-since-sliced-bread BPL.

And they are about to lock up a goddamn housewife while these vultures
roam unimpeded...
