Power Line Broadband and SmartMeters

The UK is using the rollout of smart meters to try broadband over powerlines again.

Meanwhile, the ARRL is filing a complaint that broadband over power lines creates harmful interference and that IBEC isn't playing nice in the sandbox.

And back at the ranch, we find the same state that wants to outlaw incandescent bulbs has now banned Smart-meters. Quoting:

"Among the reasons given are privacy concerns associated with measuring energy usage data moment by moment and the potential for adverse impact on emergency communication systems used by first responders and amateur radio operators."

I'm glad to see they have their priorities straight.
