Hoyo Matti, I think more organizations/ international broadcasters should use SSB as its less power. All the BBC do is talk all day, so why bother using AM?
Anyhow AFN seem to get around the globe on only a few watts so thats good news, and 120 KW AM seems like little distance. I find the AFN has over modulation issues with the Diego Darcia TX as the audio is a tad distorted (clipping).
