Sorry, your audio is to low on the video,

Overrated!

They're illegal, and that's the end of it. It's black and white in the LAW.

They're already banned.

Radio enthusiasts want Ofcom to do their job, because PLT is illegally destroying radio reception, of radio hams, CBers, military, marine, aviation, broadcast radio and much more!

Typo - I meant 2006. And that link you posted is NOT the regulations. Look on the legislation.gov.uk site.

They cannot conform to these regulations.

Refer to sections 4, 15, 16, 21, 46 and 49, for starters.

Here is a link to the new regulations:

@Ayrshore

You are quoting from 2005. The regulations changed in 2006. As long as manufacturers conform to the Electromagnetic Compatibility Regulations 2006, they can sell them legally.

You wouldn't be able to pick them up in Currys or Comet if they were illegal. Only radio enthusiasts want them banned, which I guess you are.

[Ayrshore]

@dpleech72 That's where you're wrong. It's illegal to sell or use it in the UK as well. Read the Electromagnetic Compatibility Regulations 2005 on the legislation.gov.uk website.

They cannot operate without interfering with radio frequencies. Therefore, it is illegal to sell them, use them, or put a CE mark on them.

@Ayrshore

You can by them legally in the UK. The last time I checked, we were in Europe.

[Ayrshore]

Powerline Networking is illegal to sell or use in Europe.

@piafounet Yes, the kit comes with two identical adapters; one will connect via Ethernet to your router (becomes your transmitter), and the other you put where ever you want a high speed Internet connection (your receiver). It doesn't matter which adapter you connect to the router.
