[AMRadio] Source Broadcast Xmtrs

[W2XJ]

Good low frequency response is important if broadcast style processing 
is used. The major name processors from the 80s and on used LF 
compensation to adjust tilt on clipped peaks and increased to amount of 
usable modulation. Those equalizers were designed to match the typical 
plate mod transmitters around at the time which went down to somewhere 
between 30 and 50 hertz. A 300 hertz cut off is far from adequate when a 
good processor is used before the transmitters.  If you want a screaming 
processor, try to find a CRL MBL-1.
