I dont have any problems with this up to pres. :) Then again I sort it
out as it comes along.......
Is it scaremongering , or are these people for real ?
Yes, but it isn't PLT, which hasn't taken off here,
and is unlikely to. It's BT's Homeplug that is the
problem: a domestic system which uses the mains cabling
as a domestic network carrier, thus absolving the terminally
incompetent from setting up a working radio or ethernet
system.
I had two different species of this causing me
problems, one on the lower bands <10 MHz and another
type from 10 MHz up. Thankfully not both at the same time.
They both disappeared all of a sudden over the last
month or so.
I had a poblem several months ago with a homeplug system approx 100 feet
away, a word to the owner illustrating the problem it was causing with
an FT-817 as a test RX in his house sorted it out.
He contacted BT and they replaced it with a more recent model and no
problems after that.
You want to try that round here, most would get very nasty if you
knocked on their doors...
Well if I called them effing cretins, as you called me, I dont really
blame them.
You started the thread slagging people off pal, not me,
You mean slagging off foundation licenced incompetents that jump on any
band-waggon that happens to come along.

They would rather have their arses wiped by the UK QRM blackshirts, or
create imaginary problems, than logically, sort it out themselves.

You must be a member of said group , to react so obviously.

Guilty as charged m'lud



Whatever...
I hope you are surrounded with bloody PLA systems....
That is nice of you, have a lovely day.
