[AMRadio] Can they 'really' know?

Yes, I "could" just let her rip.

However, I simply do not.

There are many different personalities in this hobby.  It is no 
different than those that own Corvettes.

*Some* may just let her rip.  Then there are those that just do not.

The Atlanta District Enforcement Officer for the FCC, Angelo Dundee, 
used to drop in for coffee and a shoot the breeze session when he was in 
the area.  It didn't change the way I operated then, nor has the way I 
operate now.  They were simply friendly visits and acted neighborly and 
friendly.

I ran AM with an HT-37/SX-101A setup.  The HB grounded grid 813s were 
for the SB-102/SP-600/HP-23 setup.

Different strokes, different folks.

Although I have known of a few that made a big deal of lighting off a 
pair of 4-1000As, just to hear their signal come back around to the back 
of the beam.

To what purpose?  I personally do not know.  It certainly wasn't to 
communicate with anyone.
