[RFI] A troubling new source of RFI

[David Robbins]

That’s funny, I had an Ethernet over power lines for a while and with 6 HF stations at 1500w running with antennas all around the house I never heard it and it worked just fine.

I once tried Ethernet over house power wiring.  It didn't last long.  When I loaded a kW into the antenna, that took care of it.  The "adapter" went up in smoke, literally.  However, when it was operating, the RFI was about as bad as the recordings all of us have heard of BPL.
