Believe me, commercial broadcasting (especially since the FCC allowed a

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

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.
