"Thom R. Lacosta" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> made an utterence to the qrplist gang
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Well, the BPL announcement has brough out tons of comments, many of them political from the august members of QRP-L.
Once again, I stepped into it.....the message below was not only moderated, but also rejected by the esteemed Mr. Lowman with the following reason:
"Your message was deemed inappropriate by the moderator."
Any questions or comments should be directed to the list administrator at:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Now I sent a very polite email to the above address, asking for a bit more detail on why the message was deemed inappropriate.
To date, I have received no answer.
I'm guessing that either ebay or winlink were the danger words?

It is nice to see that the order provides some level of interference protection for aeronautical & aircraft, public safety, coast guard, radio astronomy and federal government stations. Obviously, the amateur radio service doesn't matter to the Powell and the rest of the comissioners. I expect this is a good mechanism to rid themselves of those pesky hams once and for all.
Well, maybe if we all move to Winlink, we'll be more immune to BPL.
It's been good guys, but I fear the end is near. The field tests around the country have shown we can't coexist with BPL.
I think that you're correct.
The upside is that all the QRP gear will become collectors items on Ebay.
