[Antennas] BPL

This means (trying to be non-partisan when I'm anything but) that we 
must choose who we vote for on some other basis than BPL since neither 
party offers relief.
I intend to donate more to the ARRL Spectrum Defense fund and hope 
amateur radio can survive the electromagetic ignorance of both parties.
There are other issues in this election. Make your best judgements. 
Then choose to fight for the survival of amateur radio with whatever 
party prevails.
