[AMRadio] AM Transmitter Advice??

Wow.  Well, 6 watts to 20 watts is about 5.2 dB of
increase.

One night someone switched from 350 watts to 80
watts, about a 6.4 dB signal reduction.  What a
difference, he really fell into the atmospheric
static.  I'm always surprised at what a few dB can
do.  I know it's not supposed to work that way...
so it's suprising.  I guess we work at pretty low
s/n, so we really see the diffference.
