I suppose, except for the RFI. What can we SWLs do if there's nothing

BPL hash on the radio?

Frank, I don't know if this is related whatsoever 'cuz I, too, know
nothing
about BPL.

When I was in college in the mid 60's, the campus radio station used the
campus power lines rather than a RF transmitter to broadcast.

The main reason I remember it was that there would occasionally be
problems
with the signal over power lines (but not the power per se) and soime
dorms
could get the station and some - usually one or two - would be cut off for
a
day or two.

I'm not sure there is any relationship; just thought I'd throw this up
bwg.

Yeah my dormitory did the same thing 35 years ago so BPL is hardly "new".
