ARRL CEO Dave Sumner K1ZZ reviews some of the "smoking gun" material that the FCC redacted from its public disclosure of staff and NTIA studies on the unwanted radio interference created by BPL (Broadband over Power Lines). A judge reviewed the material and concluded that the FCC was hiding staff reports unfavorable to its Report and Order on BPL. The ARRL received the unredacted reports by filing a FoIA request this year (2009) after the change in presidential administrations (prior to that the FCC issued only the redacted reports). This video is from the ARRL Forum at the 2009 Dayton Hamvention, part of the "Dayton Collection 2009" from ARVN - www.arvideonews.com

CONGRATULATIONS Dave Sumner and the ARRL. Here in San Diego I sat on a special committee who worked with SDG&E during the BPL testing period. To SDG&E credit they were very coopretive and worked with the Radio Amateur community while we conducted our own testing. I hope this new evidence will put to rest the idea of implementing an HF BPL system on overhead lines.
I wish that in the UK we had an organisation such as the ARRL with the Balls to take on Ofcom. Ofcom is a Quango that thinks BPL/PLT is OK, despite the fact it is ruining the HF spectrum. Stewart G3RXQ
Very well done you ARRL! you uncovered the FCC disinformation and proved they are anything other than unbiased! Here in the UK we don't yet have BPL but we do have home plugs PLT, I expect we will find the same political influences at work here. UKQRM (Mike)
