 Previous: Southern Oklahoma ARES group assists in mass immunization drill |  Next: Surfin': DXing Between the Ham Bands |
June 18, 2004 -- A video that clearly and concisely explains
and depicts the threat of Broadband over Power Line (BPL) to Amateur Radio now
is available for downloading free of charge from the ARRL Web site. The
video, BPL and HF: A Primer, runs
approximately three and one-half minutes (including credits). It's suitable for
Amateur Radio club presentations as well as for non-ham audiences, such as the
news media, civic clubs, local governments and emergency response agencies. A
suitable "companion piece" for the video presentation is the ARRL brochure
"Broadband over Power Line: Why Amateur Radio is Concerned about Its
Deployment," which makes an ideal informational handout. Members of the North
Carolina BPL Action Team--Frank Lynch, W4FAL; Tom Brown, N4TAB; and Gary
Pearce, KN4AQ--with assistance from Cyndi Pearce, KD4ACW; Danny Musten, KD4RAA;
and SoundTrax Studios in Raleigh, North Carolina, shot and narrated the video.
It was produced and edited by Flint.Ridge Productions. The file is
approximately 18 MB. A high-speed Internet connection is strongly advised for
those wishing to download BPL and HF: A
Primer.
