I do not have a repeater (yet), but I am about to buy one in the next few days, together with some other stuff I will be needing.
All X10 implementations that I know of (including PLCBUS) use a 120KHz carrier signal, so concerning filters it should not matter which ones you use.
Concerning the repeater however, it depends on how the PLCBUS protocol works (I have no info on it).
From what I learned about how the FKX works is that it decodes an X10 transmission (both X10 packets are actually transmitted twice) and then amplifies and re-tranmits it on all other phases.
Something like this:
L1 --> A1 OFF (The second transmission of the A1 OFF on this phase will be discarded by the FKX)
L2 --> A1 OFF, A1 OFF
L3 --> A1 OFF, A1 OFF
If the protocol-implementation of PLCBUS works the same (transmitting data twice) it might work. But that is what I want to find out.
If PLCBUS and FKX do not work together, I might have to resort to Xanura modules (Which is more expensive).

<br />Don't know, don't have a FKX repeater. Do you? Maybe we can arrange something by combining our 'gear'.
Regarding filtering for PLCBUS i was advised this one:

I should get 1 in the next 2 weeks or so.
Don't have much experience with filters yet (and actually hope i'll never get it either)
