Well, maybe he did mean 50 KW, but then again there are (were) stations like good ole' XERF, Del Rio, Texas! That station (and a bunch of others from south of the border, ran a heck of a lot more than 50 KW.

I remember also that several other stations in the NW ran 50 KW, like KEX in Portland, and maybe another Portland stations (KWJJ ?). Albuquerque had KOB, which shared 770 khz with only one other station in NYC--that's changed now. KGO in S.F. was 50 KW also I think. There used to be lots of them.

500kW? I assume that must be a typo. AFAIK, the limit on the AM BCB is 50kW in Canada and the US.
