ARRL talks to FCC about BPL

ARRL Chief Executive Officer David Sumner, K1ZZ, and General Counsel Chris Imlay, W3KD, have been acquainting FCC Commissioners with the ARRL's position on the regulation of interference from Broadband over Power Lines (BPL) systems.

They pointed out that interference could become a much greater problem if BPL becomes part of the "smart grid" deployment that is intended to improve the efficiency and reliability of electric power distribution and to reduce peak demand.
