Default BPL strikes another win ...

This thread is beginning to switch gears, now we seem to be on the
subject of jamming; jamming is obviously possible. A simple 100 MW
white noise generator driving my KW+ lab amp would tear up a good chunk
of my neighborhood, given the right ant/circumstances. Heck, I would
probably even be placing enough of a signal on the phone lines to slow
up 56K dialup modems also.

Somehow, I just wouldn't get anything out of it. And, given the few
active hams in the US, the logic of logistics says, "moot point."

But, for those egos imagining themselves special, deserving and
empowered above mere mortals--they are allowed to dream. ROFLOL!

However, it appears the world according to you will end up with
laws/rules/regulations being passed to halt amateurs jamming of citizens
use of the internet. With as much damage as some amateurs have done to
the hobby and image of amateurs in general--I guess it won't matter too
much.
