Power and location.
5 KW with a saltwater ground plane is easy compared to Amateur levels from Kansas.

The frequency will be 475 kHz.  I'll use my JRC NSC17M maritime reserve transmitter operating into my Marconi L antenna.  Not a powerhouse like KSM, but in CW mode this setup has received reception reports in Wisconsin and surrounding states during the day, and throughout this region of the country at night.
