"The FCC is going forward with its plan to allow the r.f. noise floor to
rise to unprecedented levels which will, of course adversely affect our
hobby."

Mike,

I didn't see anything in the article that suggested a rise in the RF noise
floor.  Current FCC regulations are pretty much in line with international
requirements for unintended emissions from electrical and electronic gear.
 When we have noise emissions problems, they're usually caused by poor
enforcement.

The article is mainly concerned about the demise of AM radio because of
falling revenues and competition from other media, namely FM and the
Internet.
