We're having great results with AM HD on WHA - the digital blows people 
away when they hear it.  And the analog sounds good too. I'll admit WHA 
has a simpler implementation with a single tower non-directional than

Don't get me started on BE. I've relegated our AM-6A to standby in favor of our 
good old Nautel ND5 after BE screwed us on replacement parts to the tune of 
most of the cost of a new transmitter. The Nautel
won't do HD but that's good by me. AM HD sucks

I brought the local/remote function out to a rack panel (my switch 
disables the external relays that interface the remote control to get 
the same effect).  I'm also planning to add tiny fault reset

Not sure If we sold the 5 kw Contenential or the Gates MW5
I may also have a  solidstate Harris SX5 for sale( It is complete but

I am surprised you sold the Nautel.  I have heard nothing but good

That's not good. I am surprised BE would do things that way. Not logical, and 
not good for a quick reset. Are you interested in the MW-5?

That's been an excellent rig for us - we have an B.E. AM-6A and it runs 
smooth.  Only three small gripes:  I would like more front panel 
metering, the "local/remote" switch should have been on the front panel 
rather than inside the card access door, and faults on the individual 
modules cannot be reset without powering down or pulling the module.

I brought the local/remote function out to a rack panel (my switch 
disables the external relays that interface the remote control to get 
the same effect).  I'm also planning to add tiny fault reset 
pushbuttons to the front of each module - I've got the wiring worked
