>Broadcasters Intervene to Support ARRL in BPL Court Appeal
>
>The Association for Maximum Service Television (MSTV) and the
>National Association of Broadcasters (NAB) have filed a joint motion
>for leave to intervene in support of the ARRL in its court appeal of
>the Federal Communications Commission's Broadband over Power Line (BPL) rules.
>
>The motion to the US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia
>Circuit is dated November 9 and states: "MSTV and NAB believe that
>the regulations under review are arbitrary, capricious, and contrary
>to law, and will adversely impact their members by, among other
>things, permitting unlicensed users of radio spectrum to interfere
>with licensed uses of the spectrum."
>
>MSTV and NAB are entitled to intervene as a matter of right, so the
>Court is expected to grant the motion. As expected, some BPL
>proponents are seeking to intervene on the side of the FCC.
>
>ARRL Chief Executive Officer David Sumner, K1ZZ, welcomed the
>support of MSTV and NAB. "It is gratifying that these two
>prestigious broadcasting organizations recognize the danger posed to
>all FCC licensees by the FCC's flawed BPL rules. It's good to have
>them on our side."
