Dan,

Sure, please read the article and you will find:

"Other groups, citing concern about radio interference, have also urged
the
government to take a cautious approach to approving the technology. They
include the National Academy of Sciences,Aeronautical Radio Inc., and the
National Telecommunications and Information Agency, which represents
federal agencies that use high-frequency radio channels.

PPL said it has received only four complaints about shortwave radio
interference since it began its trials."

Hope that answers your question.
