HomePlug V.1 uses 4-20 MHz, with most amateur bands notched about 30 dB below 
the permitted FCC Part 15 levels.  That is not enough to protect against 
interference in all cases, but is well worth the doing nonetheless. The new 5 
MHz allocation is not protected in HomePlug V.1.

The upcoming "AV" version of HomePlug will be similarly notched, with 5 MHz 
added, I would expect.
