Another alternative is series modulation. This has efficiency issues using a class A series modulator, but for low power AM this might be the ticket. At the following link are two circuits that I found somewhere, and am just passing them on. I never tried them.

Any suggestions, anyone? Thanks. > For a plate modulator that works great and does not require a hard-to-find transformer try the circuit described by Dale Hileman in the April 1955 issue of Radio and Television news. Heising circuit with a clever bias shifting scheme included. Hileman called it a "Reference Shift" modulator. Circuit revisited in ER #91, November 1996 with some updates for using several popular sweep tubes in place of the 807 originally employed by Hileman. Dennis D.
