OK, FCC didn't come out the way we'd hoped -- it probably was the way we expected -- but what do we do now (i.e., during the coming comment period)? Are we going to ask our members to flood FCC with negative comments? Separately, is it time to begin to flood the power companies with complaints of current forms of interference -- keep copies of correspondence -- flood FCC with complaints of arrogant noncompliance after these guys continue to ignore the complaints? My guess is that with enough examples of unmitigated carelessness of indifference to consumers needs, even the FCC would have to begin to take notice of what is really going on. Maybe we've been too nice in the past. ------ Chris? Jim W. AMATEUR RADIO: The only fail-safe communications system in the world. ARRL: The reason Amateur Radio is!
