The "notching" solution is simple: Their BPL system does not use

But how long will that last?

Exactly.

Here in Israel we call it the "boiled lobster"
effect. A live lobster placed in a pot of cold water is happy. As the
water gets hotter it falls asleep. It never realizes it's being cooked.

There's a similar story on this side of the pond about a frog. Says
that
if you put a frog into hot water it will jump out, but if you put one
in
cool water and warm it up slowly, it will not.

Except that's not what happens at all - real frogs jump out when the
water gets hot enough.

This what will happen with BPL. By the time you realize that it's taken
over the ham bands, it will be too late.

The ARRL and others have made a lot of noise about BPL, and they're not
letting up.

That's why I'm boycotting
Google, they with two other companies invested $100,000,000 in BPL.

Does boycotting Google help? I don't pay them any money.
