Hi Carl,

I made a trip to the Cape Giradeu MO test area. This ws a very limited
test area encompassing maybe 10 - 15 homes judging from the inductors I
saw on the utility poles. I found that BPL seems to operate in an
"idle" mode and a active demand mode.

You might want to contact this fellow.

I don't remember if he's a ham, I worked with him on a project there a
couple years ago. He does have nice spectrum analysis tools, and he lives
there in Cape G.
