They describe the service as " a small antenna at my house and a broadcast tower a short distance away". Is this the broadband over power lines type affair that we have all been opposing? I wonder why the company does not identify themselves?? The return address is a local post office box.

Most likely this is a feasibility study for 802.16 or 802.20.
Several studies are going on right now concerning these technologies.
Here is a link for more info:

Unlike BPL or 802.11, this is a licensed technology.
In otherwords; 802.16/20 is our friend....  ;>
