Aurora Energy plans another
"Major Commercial Trial"

In Australia's VK7 region, Aurora Energy are planning another "Major Commercial Trial", this around mid-year using the 200 Mbit chip technology from DS2 in Spain.

Justin VK7TW says in Aurora's Annual report for 2004 claims are made that the trial conducted in April was described as "highly successful".

"Highly Successful"?

Well it did only target their office and 4 homes.

This new trial we understand will involve about 1000 homes.

A sound recording of the BPL interference that Eric, VK7TAS recorded during the first Aurora BPL trial to give people an idea of the type of interference that may be experienced exists, this at http://reast.asn.au/soundfiles/kirkswaybpl.wav
