Well, This is getting off topic for this reflector, but information is that there have been experimental (amateur radio) stations on the (new) bands for some time, with higher power limits than have currently been authorized for general amateur radio use going forward. There have been no interference reports.
The ARRL was very conservative suggesting a 1 Kilometer standard for separation between an amateur radio station and transmission lines carrying PLC data in regards to non-interference. The truth is, shorter distances would still likely not produce interference. The FCC did adopt the 1 kilometer distance as a standard, however. '73 de JIM N2ZZ Aha! So PLC and amateur radio DO interfere with each other after all. In the end, amateur radio operators have been vindicated on this point.
