Does BPL mean that I can just pack up my equipment? Or is it going to be such a loser than I can ignore it? I live a half mile east of a large power substation with high voltage lines running north. Depending on the weather, I already have occasional interference on all types of wireless reception and transmission. Presumably BPL is only going to be a last-mile sort of thing. So you will not have to worry about the high voltage lines so much as the local lines in your neighborhood. The noise will be broadband, and will be pretty much everywhere. Would satellite or digital radio be better to avoid the interference? My personal feeling is that BPL will not be cost-effective anywhere and that attempts to put it into place will not be very successful, so there probably won't be too much to worry about. If you are outside of a dense urban area, it probably won't be an issue in any case. Nobody really knows. But in this age where a huge number of appliances don't even come close to meeting Part 15 requirements, I think it's a wonder that HF is as clean as it is. --scott -- "C'est un Nagra.
