Well, I'm still here, and my 166.500 KC TX is on the air 24/7 pumping
out 400 watts to the antenna, with an ERP of a bit over a watt.

So far, my emergency generator has not had to crank up even once. <G>
I would imagine in this metro area, there would be some PLC stuff in
operation.  AFAIK, there's been no interference.

It's interesting that the FCC did not look in their database and
inquire of the SHMRG operations to see if there has been any
interference as a result.
