In or out of the notches? I'll agree that outside the notches there is no question when a BPL system is operating. BPL is being proposed by some as one of the command/control link methods for the Smartgrid. The EMC Society is pushing the folks working on IEEE P2030 to consider EMC as an important

Aren't the hams the ones that talk around the world one one watt, or is it five watt radios? So in a disaster, please bring a hand full of batteries, if you want to talk to someone over a ham radio. That someone would be advised to live not in an area of BPL/PLC as the intentional received ham sig

Luke: I once set up a test station where I had to test the performance of microwave waveguide filters, and I despaired about all the screwdriver work that would be involved (this was in the pre-electric screwdriver days). The waveguide was WR-90 (X-band), but the technique is general. I just fishe

It should be noted that the current level of notching provides an adequate level of protection to services in the notches. This has been shown by experience in the field. And, the IEEE EMC Society believes that EMC considerations are critical to the success of PLC and Smartgrid technologies.
