Mbe someone should tell them that a power line is an antenna, not a transmission cable.

We already have that in some parts of Sweden, or at least
there were experiments where people could get broadband
connections over the mains. I did read once, though, that
a similar large-scale experiment in Britian was eventually
terminated because of too many complaints from ordinary
power customers. Don't remeber exactly what the major
problems was, but I think it was very noticeable, like flicker
in the streetlights and light bulbs at home etc.
Maybe some of our british friends can tell more about that
project?
