Reply To NASWA BPL Comments
A reply comment was submitted to the FCC that addressed the NASWA comments filed with the FCC on June 30. The reply makes some good points, but in my opinion overestimates the utility of the 30-47 MHz range for over-the-horizon communications. I am presenting the author’s comments here verbatim in order to provide an independent perspective which will help you better understand the interference issues associated with the BPL technology.
The following is a set of reply comments from Nickolaus E. Leggett, an amateur radio operator (Extra Class licensee – call sign N3NL), inventor (U.S. Patents # 3,280,929 and 3,280,930 and one electronics invention patent application pending), and a certified electronics technician (ISCET and NARTE). I also have a Master of Arts degree in Political Science from the Johns Hopkins University (May 1970).
These comments are reply comments to the comments submitted by the North American Shortwave Association (NASWA).
