Last week ARRL filed in a BPL hearing in New York State pointing out a number of problems (reliability) that BPL faces. The article Ed cites has a link to the state site where you can read the reports from the various utilities and BPL providers. We were apparently the only non utility/BPL provider group that filed comments. Thanks Chris. The industry newsletter Ed cites has an interesting take on utility thinking in this state. Frank...N2FF..... This is worth reading. The utilities were not exactly enthusiastic about BPL in their filings: http://www.bpltoday.com/sample/bp060320.pdf Ed Hare, W1RFI ARRL Laboratory Manager
