[50mhz] AM on 6

[Wayne]

 Looks to me like it was intended to use 1,000 Khz as the IF in your AM
Broadcast receiver.
 This is based on 50.4 Mhz converted to 1 Mhz.
 Not sure if there is any activity there around here, but should be some in
various places around the country.
 JFTR, back in the 70's, there was some DX received in Rochester NY from
down Florida way, but at a time when I had only a Novice license, so could
not legally use 6 meters.
 Times have sure changed...

 P.S.
 I almost sent this reply only to the poster, being as this group is set up
that way when doing a reply.
 I like the way it's done with groups like Yahoogroups, etc.
