![]() : : What has happened to the FCC interference protection standards, though? : I am regularly seeing appliances for sale which can't even come close to : meeting the Part 15 requirements for emission. Now we've got BPL coming : down the pike, on top of all the touch lamps and noisy TV sets. Is there : anyone at the FCC that cares about MW and HF use at all? a bigger question should be what has happened to the FCC period (hint: michael powell is no help). AM and FM interference "standards" went out with the fairness doctrine. both bands have been totally ghettoized. fits in nicely with the crud channel corporate sound of slop. no standards on the technical side and no standards on the programming side. no wonder listenership is down.... |

I am regularly seeing appliances for sale which can't even come close to meeting the Part 15 requirements for emission. You're right. Interference requirements seem to have to become a dead issue in the last 10 or 15 years. It would be asking alot of the FCC to have them start caring now. Now we've got BPL coming down the pike, on top of all the touch lamps and noisy TV sets. Is there anyone at the FCC that cares about MW and HF use at all? I don't think so. I think BPL is a terrible idea, and I say that as someone who holds stock in several power companies. But then, I thought VOIP was a terrible idea also. --scott Are any of those power companies considering BPL? I'd worry about the company ****ing away cash on a goofy idea. Frank Dresser |

No, but you could say that about Kerry. He missed most of the Senate votes this year. -- Telamon Ventura, California |

The fairness doctrine is interference. It was used as a political club. Richard Nixon and the Republican party were using the so-called fairness doctrine to go after the licenses of radio and TV properties of networks and newspapers they didn't like. But Nixon didn't invent the tactic. It was first used in the Kennedy administration. Given today's political climate,I'm sure both parties would enthusiastically hammer the media companies whenever embarrassing stories got out. Is that really what you want? There's a mistaken belief that dropping the fairness doctrine made right wing political talk radio possible. That's not true. In Chicago, Howard Miller had a greatly entertaining political talk show back in the early seventies. Miller was to the right of Limbaugh, Hannity and Atilla the Hun. Let's also consider who else gets treated shabbily by the fairness doctrine. Who should determine what the audience should hear -- the government or the audience? Frank Dresser |

The Fairness Doctrine could be resurrected and rewritten to assure a balance of voices/opinions are heard on the public airwaves. 2. The audience has absolutely no input over what is heard on the airwaves (with very limited exceptions). If you try to argue that broadcasters are responding to market demands then the I.Q. factor in this country has indeed fallen to the low double or even single digit range. 3. No, what I would really like to see is an ownership cap of seven to a dozen stations per entity with no cross ownership. Then there might actually be some creative programming and diversity - you know, like there was for the first 75 years or so.... Imagine! stations with different studios, different personnel, maybe even different program directors! Then they wouldn't sell for over inflated amounts and we wouldn't get stripped down, dumbed down voice-tracked generic dog-vomit programming! 4. Radio listenership is down by 15-20%. There's a reason for that |

this isn't a poltoical post only asking about broadband over powerlines.
the only way i'd truly be for this is if they could do something to the lines there using so that the radio wvaes or harmonics as i've read won't be emitted out side the transmission lines? www.moveon.org stop the republicans! bush health care does not empower americans! |

The "move on" bull**** appearing at the bottom of your post makes it a political post.
