We've been wondering why there are so many hits on our club website for the BPL pages - this article has a link to it. This will be a busy month!

I would like to see the FCC return to its more technically oriented management.
My impression is that over the years many positions have been filled with a politically motivated staff
resulting in questionable policies.
BPL has been the most recent example of this.
Fortunately for the Amateur community, science (actually the bottom line)is bringing the BPL experiment to an end.
The good news is that no one had to die in order to turn this around.

Show me the first, and probably the ONLY, BPL test installation in a truly rural environment? When the BPL advocates start demonstrating this core rational for their service then, they will have a large measure of believability.

The Federal Communications Commission used to be a "regulatory" entity, now it has become a "political" entity, causing many of us in the communications industry to now dub the FCC the "Federal Cash Cow".

Nice article.

Faith based BPL "technology"; faith based middle east "war"; faith based "economy"; faith based "court system"; faith based "Amerika" in the dark ages toilet.
