[600MRG] TM1LY and TM100LY Lafayette Stations on the Air.

[Bart Lee]

Thanks for this!

They make pretty good wine in Bordeaux as well...

But my question is: How did the antennas work at 15 KHz?  Are they
radiating towers as in the RCA Alexanderson alternator transmitters, e.g.,
SAQ still operating in Sweden?  Were there wires between the towers?  For a
capacity hat?  Was there a ground-screen?
