    Phone dudes hook up a line to a device which sends a frequency thru th   
   eline so you can find where it physically leads to. How can I buy a low cost   
   (low use) version of such a gadget? One that also works at higher (eg 120VAC)   
   voltages?   
      
    I appreciate the signal will be lost at transformers (why we were unable to   
   use power lines to transmit submetering data and why the power and rails   
   firms failed in their internet biz plans).
