Perhaps not exactly on topic, but of concern to all of us who listen to radio. I was at my local Costco the other day, killing some time before my wife was finished. I noted a home internet package, using your own electrical wiring to distribute internet. Seems to me to be a home version of the dreaded BPL which doesn't appear to be going anywhere. Anyway, the packaging claimed that it passed Part 15 FCC Guidelines, but upon further investigation, the box clearly states that it uses "2 to 28 MHz". Ouch!!! Even a few milliwatts of power within a few homes around will be more than enough, I would think, to spoil my attempts at DXing. I sure hope they sell too many, as most people these days buy a good wireless router for the same or less than the cost of this beast. I hope they sell none, and ship them all back to wherever they were made! Anyone out there have the nerve to try it themselves? Comments? .....Walt Salmaniw, Victoria, BC
