[AMRadio] 500 Kc (was Re: 450T amp)

[WE0H]

A good way to get the ball rolling would be to apply for a Part 5 
license for that freq or others or even a band. www.fcc.gov/oet is the 
place to go. The form is a 442 and it costs 55 bucks for a application 
the last I heard. Yes AM would sound cool down there. Don't be shy in 
asking for mad power output either. Best to ask for a ERP level rather 
than amp power output.
