charger,
"What do you make of Nortel/BT's claim to have invented a means to transmit
phone calls and television signals over electric power lines with no interference"

they have had the tech for many yrs now. i worked on a team back in 1988/89 (electric utility) which was to use our neutral wire for meter reading data. we also experiemented with different voltage lines and found it possible but not cost effective. to make a long story short we dropped it.
