Will dx become more interesting as the power blasters close down in favour of internet and satellite? Things could be getting exciting for dxers. What do you think? I think that unless the FCC starts actually enforcing Part 15 regulations for a change, that QRM is going to be more of an issue in the future than interference from the powerhouse shortwave stations. I also think that MW DXing is either going to be dealt a huge blow from IBOC, or it's going to be considerably improved by the stations reducing channel bandwidth in preparation for IBOC. It's certainly going to change. But, much as we are disturbed by the impending implementation of BPL, it is no worse than many other interference sources which are currently illegal and about which the FCC does nothing. These problems will just continue getting worse. Touch lamps a mile away are clearly audible on 80M here. Now imagine that multiplied a millionfold in an urban area. You think Wal-Mart cares that they are selling products that don't meet FCC regulations? You think the FCC even cares? --scott -- "C'est un Nagra. C'est suisse, et tres, tres precis." |
