Running BROADBAND over the power lines certainly is a long standing operational problem with the HAM RADIO community. One of their original test beds was in a town close to here in Virginia.
I still see strange noise burst which are coming from my power pole where the local power company is doing automated meter reading devices that does the same thing. Almost sounds like the Russia WOODPECKER on 40meters when it kicks in....
CamperPaul and myself have a pretty long list of FCC TYPE approved devices that interfere with Ham Radio. RV LED lights are right at the top of the list.
Here is a CAMPERPAUL photo showing his experiments with using very small capacitors trying to eliminate the RFI from LED lightbulbs. These are 1/8-inch long capacitors. I can't solder anything that small haha...
