concerning "close to the power line" can result in a fatal misunderstanding of
those operating not "close to the power line". The unintended (yet unavoidable)
RF fields radiated by BPL do not only propagate as "ground waves" but also as
sky waves via the ionosphere. As there may eventually be hundreds or thousands
of sources, the sum of the radiated fields - even if only a few milliwatts per
source - can spoil the HF spectrum at any place in the world, even at
KH7......and not only "close to the power line".
