Stop BPL (Broadband Over Power Lines) or PLC (Power Line Communications) now!

Thought for the Day: "Just because it's New Technology, it does not make it a better Technology!"

(Logo courtesy of Cosy Muto JH5ESM, Japan)

Protect the very future of essential HF (Shortwave) radio services as well as International Radio Broadcast Listening, Radio Scanning, CB Radio and Amateur (Ham) Radio.

All radio frequencies below 100 Mhz could be affected. Contact your local Member of Parliament or locally elected Federal representative to inform them of the problems with BPL. Please visit the STOP BPL page now for the latest news on BPL/PLC in Australia and around the world!
