While specific frequencies are not mentioned, this post makes

clear that what's being considered is the transmission of milli-

meter waves using power lines as waveguide. No obvious

threat to HF or VHF unless they manage to screw up the

implementation.


This is a follow-up to my related post earlier today.

Here is an additional article on the technology. Still not clear if they are using the power lines to transport the signals, nor what the frequency range it is using.

AT&T begins testing high-speed internet over power lines

NEW YORK (Reuters) - AT&T Inc has started trials in Georgia state and a
non-U.S. location to deliver high-speed internet over power lines, the No. 2
wireless carrier said on Wednesday, marking its latest push to offer faster
broadband service to more customers.

AT&T aims to eventually deliver speeds faster than the 1 gigabit per second
consumers can currently get through fiber internet service using high-frequency
airwaves that travel along power lines.

For North American users, PMap 9 (Precision Mapping 9.0) along with PMapServer 9 can provide street level mapping for all of North America. They can be installed without hassle on Windows 7 & 8. PMapServer is available for download on the UI-View website. However, Undertow Software is no longer selling new copies of PMap 9, but existing owners can continue to use it as long as they can get it registered.

Users of anything newer than Windows XP should not install UI-View below Program Files. Instead, create a folder elsewhere. To view UI-View's built-in context sensitive help file, download and install WinHlp32.exe.
