I find it very interesting how the ARRL has changed the nature of their challenge to BPL.

It started out as a worthy fight against yet another RFI problem from devices that aren't supposed to radiate. Over time their effort has "morphed" into a drive to get BPL operators to notch out the ham bands only and let the rest of the spectrum go to the dogs. I wonder why?

I am against all forms of unnecessary radio noise from unlicensed devices - not just those in the ham bands. And I am a bit surprised that the League has narrowed its objective in this way. Maybe it makes it easier to declare "mission accomplished"!

And, it should be noted that getting a few thousand bucks back from the FCC doesn't do anything to stop BPL. The FCC hasn't changed a thing...
