For good AM (I mean REALLY GOOD AM) try a SDR-1000 by Flex-Radio. This
is a computer driven little black box that can create any form of
modulation and make it sound beautiful. The receiver uses a quadrature
mixer into a sound card with some free software to make the AM sound
really great. Has synchronous detector too and filtering that is truly
brick wall stuff. The filtering is fully adjustable on each side of the
carrier so if an aflack is causing trouble on one side just use the
cursor to shave it off. No knobs, glowing tubes or 1000 lb cabinets.
Stick a linear on the tail end and go up against anyone on the band.
Want to try the new Digital Radio Mondail
DRM stuff? Load up the free software and have at it.
This from one who does spectrum measurements on 300 +/- AM broadcast
stations each year. Also owns 4 Gates, 1 Westinghouse MW-1 and 1
Western Electric AM type transmitters.
They will soon be for sale. Maybe I'll keep the Western Electric, its
art deco neat.
