[TenTec] Fw: BPL

[Ron Notarius WN3VAW]

And at least one FCC commisioner is already on record as praising BPL as
"broadband nirvana."  So much for an unbiased, open mind without
preconceived
notions.  (I know, I know, what else do you expect from a politician?
"...her lips moved!...")

Hi, Rod,

It is worse than that, even.  BPL is permitted right now under the present
FCC rules. If they do make a change to the rules, I can't imagine their
lowering the limits. In any event, it would not have to be approved by
Congress -- the Commission is empowered to create its own regulations.

  Ed:

  Forgive me for asking, but presuming the worst case scenario that the FCC
approves BPL, does it have to be approved by the House and Senate?

  Hope you're keeping well in spite of all that's going on in the world.

  Have a good weekend pal...
