I heard the story at 620 AM local time (1020 UTC); would expect a
repeat at 820 AM local time as well.
The story focuses on a small Texas town, population roughly 1,500,
whose electric utility is municipally owned. The BPL infrastructure
is currently being installed.
The story does include a sound bite from the ARRL's Ed Hare regarding
BPL interference; the equipment provider says that some frequencies
are notched out to eliminate interference.
The report contains one significant factual error -- the report states
that BPL enables one to use every wall socket as an Internet
connection, which isn't true per se -- that's more a function of the
home networking method chosen.
In addition to your local NPR station's over-the-air feed, numerous
NPR stations webcast Morning Edition live; on-demand audio will likely
be made available at approximately 10 AM ET / 1400 UTC.
