PLT is an unintentional device that happens to use the HF band maybe at higher levels than you would like – but there it is. By your logic ALL electronic devices should be classified as intentional radiators. After all we have emissions that fall in someone’s space in the ether. (Disclosure : I have eight PLC devices in my house. As my interconnection needs expanded I could keep pace without having to rewire the house!)

So they are not concerned with ITU. That is why I plea for treating PLT as Radio, not wire bounded communication. Any radiation should (according to them) be treated as spurious radiation. As the standard AMN (V-network- LISN) has a conversion factor from Diff Mode signal to its output of - 6dB, any send level above on average 66 + 6 dB is a failure. (well, you know the actual limits). By defining the mains connection as both mains (when not sending) and telecom port (when sending) they try to create a situation where a dedicated network (ISN) can be introduced to measure telecom port spurious emissions. Of course any telecom port network (ISN) has to mimic the LCL value of the connected network (just as with CAT 3-6 network cabling),and that opens a way of redefining the 6dB LCL value. Some propositions go as low as -26 dB of DM to CM conversion, and this makes it possible to increase the send level with 20 dB. So that means that an mains network has better properties for PLT (-26) then for other equipment (-6) !!!! Regards, Ing.

If there is a conflict between two incompatible uses of the HF spectrum, I would think that it is necessary for the ITU to arrange a proper discussion regarding the merits of radio-communications vs.. PLT/Home Plug. Even though I know which I think is most important, I can see that, if it is necessary for the good of humanity, to supplant radio communications in the HF band with PLT then it will show as such in any rigorous cost benefit analysis. All we need is a body with a charter from the worlds governments to arrange this and make a ruling on future spectrum use based upon the result. Without a "cost benefit analysis", the argument will continue. In my view it is undemocratic to continue in the current manner. Regards Tim Comment on notching. Even if I am advantaged by the notching of the PLT emissions, what about the users of the rest of the bands? Do they deserve to loose their use of the HF spectrum to PLT just because they do not have an organised voice in the same way that Hams do? The above are my personal comments and not those of my Company.
