WD2XEQ AMBIENT CORPORATION 0118-EX-PL-2003

New experimental to operate in 1.7-88 MHz for testing power line
carrier
systems. Fixed: States of NY and MA

Its about time.

Might as well, NCI and the ARRL are working on giving licenses to the
retarded masses anyway.

Sorry, but you got it the wrong way around. 'Old' Class A-amateurs (HF)
don't even know what BPL is. They are (in your terms) the 'retarded masses'.
Modern Class 'B' amateurs (technically very proficient) know what BPL is and
that also the 30 MHz bands are to be protected.

Not that I am not interested in HF though! All amateur bands need to be
protected.

Stating that BPL does not matter anymore because no-coders are allowed to
operate on HF as well, means that you don't care about radio amateurism.
Otherwise, you'd better fight hard to keep no-coders of the HF-bands instead
of complaining about them when they do enter the HF-bands.

If you really feel that the HF bands are 'lost' because of no-coders
entering them, please give up your HF-licence and move on to another hobby.
You lost your perspective on radio amateurism.
