Thanks guys. B.C. Hydro will soon be deploying some form of smart meter to
all users in the province, starting in a few weeks. I'm holding my breath. A
recent newspaper article mentioned some RF exposure concerns centered around
the usual health-related issues and the Hydro spokesman's reply was that
they need not worry as it is 'radio' and not 'microwaves' ...huh?
Some sort of PLC thing on LF? They mentioned a two-way capability for the
signal which really has me worried. I may soon be having an LF garage sale.
