Broadband Over powerlines:
Are there not enough avenues to combat RFI existing today?
Secondly, I see a lot rpt lot of modifications necessary to get the
hi-freq signals past every transformer on the way from generator to
home. Maybe a better route would running fiber-optic down the center
of the S/UHV high lines - they're hollow, as I remember.
If the resulting RFI hashes AM/FM stations there will be a lot of heat
generated.
I would expect LORAN and HF stations to go by the wayside in the next
20 years anyway. And AM/FM stations will probably be digital by then,
too. So what will happen to the amateurs? Anybody care to offer
projections?
