Well, folks, I guess it's time we dusted off our soldering irons and
machine tools. We're all going to have to use amplifiers to
communicate over the noise. A couple hundred watts just ain't gonna
cut it.

Hey, if our noise floor goes up by another ten to 20 dB, then we'll
need at least that much power to make up for it. I think I'll
petition the FCC to allow Extra Class hams the right to use up to 25
kW.

What's that? It would trash the BPL system for at least a mile in
every direction? Well, gosh, what did they expect?
