Believe me, commercial broadcasting (especially since the FCC allowed a
few
powerful groups to buy up most of the broadcast stations) has much
deeper
pockets than amateurs and would likely not hesitate even a moment to
bring
lawyers and Congress into the mess. Don't complain as a ham operator,
however; complain that you can't hear some particular programs from the
station due to all of this "interference". Let 'em figure it out



Here's an article on the BPL issue that appeared in the Allentown PA
newspaper....

Interesting to note that Dick just couldn't bring himself to mention
that I was the one who took the reporter out and demonstrated
the interference to him ... but I'm not surprised.

Yea for Karl the savior of HAM RADIO. I hope you told him you are a CBplusser,
and not a REAL HAM.

Carl, you've noted that we should stick together on this one.

Perhaps "we" doesn't include Dick?

There was no insult toward you in his post, and I would note that he
posted the link to the article, which no doubt he read, and no doubt saw
that you were a part of the article.

If we are to get together and fight this thing, it might be worth
pointing out that not only should those who support Morse testing try to
get along with those who don't - but the opposite is also true.

The problem is simple, Capt Karl thinks hes the best thing that ever happened
to Ham Radio, and hes just looking for someone to say thank you Karl for saving
Ham Radio.
