>I thought LF signal were blocked by the step down transformers.  LF
intercoms and X-10 type device signals won't work unless they are on the
same side of the transformer.  So how could a LF power meter send it's
info over the power line?

I think this system uses pulses at a rather low repetition rate; they just
happen to have harmonics well into the LF region. The attenuation of the
transformer is another reason that I suspect my own meter is causing most of
the crud in my receiver.
