[AMRadio] Speech Processing

[W2xj]

Scopes haven’t changed much since they were invented. At least not for AM use which is the same regardless of power. BTW GR marketed early scopes as we know them. Also, the FCC never licensed 300 watt stations. 

Let’s get back to respecting Jim’s request of discussing processing technology and not antique manufactured gear.

AM being populated as heavily as it was, the FCC openlyl supported its use and as time told the story, it worked.   So with all due respect, 50kw and 2 megawatt monsters hardly relate.  Scopes of the period could not do what the 1931A could do.
