[Elecraft] a P3 first impression

[Ron D'Eau Claire]

There's a lot you can do:

1) Search for "BPL (or Plasma TV) Class Action Suits" in the internet to
learn of many under way that you might join.

2) The ARRL is a good resource for actions being taken and for documenting
cases like yours to support lobbying efforts. 

3) Write your Representative and Senators in Congress objecting to the
absurd idea that consumers will read the little Part 15 labels on their
electronics and believe them when they say they must disconnect their new,
expensive plasma TV and no longer use it if you inform them it interferes
with the operation of a licensed radio service.

None of these things are likely to fix the problem this week, this month or
even this year. What we're doing is planting trees so future generations can
enjoy the shade. And if we're lucky we'll get to enjoy some ourselves. 

Isn't that worth doing?

I wish some retired ham attorney would file a class action lawsuit against
all plasma TV manufacturers and the FCC.  How in the world did this
technology ever meet FCC Part 15 regulations in the first place?  It's a
travesty that this technology was ever allowed in our borders!
