.......I have a "sinking feeling" that there is much more here
than we know......  The addition of various communications to
ordinary power lines....  For years, the electrical industry has
used this same technique _to a very limited degree_ for the 
purpose of controlling their own electrical system.....  Now, what
Helmut is reporting on below (and Bert) ... is of a much more
expanded usage.....  And who knows how many more frequencies are
introduced into the mix......

Roy, Helmut: Thanks for this. At least now I know someone is looking at the
possibly catastrophic ongoing powerline situation. Telephone companies
(wireless, wireline), and cable and gas companies, are putting every
conceivable technology on powerlines. Wireless companies are using power
poles and the electric company rights of way to get into every conceivable
alley-way. It is the fastest and easiest way to get their technologies to
homes without people knowing it. If activists do not see they do not
complain.

Problem is to continue hiding their activity, the telecom carriers are
using the same power poles (wood or metal), which were only built to carry
light weight electric and wireline telephone wires. They fortify the poles
with galvanized steel poles. In ice, wind, and snow storms the excessive
weight topple the lines. It happened here in Virginia and Maryland this
winter. Wait till we get our great March winds.

Many of the lines run a few feet in front, by or around someone's home (I
have taken photos). Crash. There goes the house, lives, etc. This, on top
of the additional emissions which you described (as Marconi discovered
long ago) puts people at great risk.

Power Line Communication:
Data transmissions on power lines are beeing
tested around the world.
Telephone wires are twisted pair wires,
while power wiring is 'open' and unshielded.
Radio reception requires field strength values of
about 60 dB?V, on shortwave 40 dB?V. Amateur radio
reception and other radio services use as low as 4 dB?V.
It is feared that radio reception will be severely
affected by the new technologies. This means, that
we will have to expect a new HF noise of at least
about the above mentioned values in our homes.

Carrier frequency telephony is not new. Also wire radio
on long-wave was used many years ago. The problem with
unshielded cables is, that considerable radiation levels
are generated because the wiring acts as antenna.
The frequency range of the emissions stretches well up
to 10 Mhz and above, because of high data rates and digital
modulation.
The new high speed telephone transmissions, ASDL, are
expected to add considerable HF noise too, but less than PLC.
Internet from the power outlet will be a major application
in the future. Connect your refrigerator to a provider service,
and fresh pizza will be delivered as soon as necessary.
