Re: [AMRadio] 500 Kc (was Re: 450T amp)
I can get crystals made up in that range if we ever get permission. Best to use a DDS VFO or other adjustable freq source that is rock solid. There are crystal controlled transmitters on 600 meters (505-510kc) though and they sound just fine!!!

Larry, I think Bob is on a new experimental application for another 600m segment. He is not one of the stations in the 505-510 kHz experimental operation.

Re: [AMRadio] 500 Kc (was Re: 450T amp)
Why the heck don't they give hams 455 kHz as a CW channel since no one is using it any more? Or even as an AM CHANNEL?!!! Now THERE is a cool idea! You could easily detune the old tube AM broadcast band receivers to use them on that frequency! Pad those caps down from 530 kc. to 455 kc. An idea whose time has COME!

Re: [AMRadio] 500 Kc (was Re: 450T amp)
A good way to get the ball rolling would be to apply for a Part 5 license for that freq or others or even a band. www.fcc.gov/oet is the place to go. The form is a 442 and it costs 55 bucks for a application the last I heard. Yes AM would sound cool down there. Don't be shy in asking for mad power output either. Best to ask for a ERP level rather than amp power output. Mike WE0H Bry Carling wrote: Why the heck don't they give hams 455 kHz as a CW channel since no one is using it any more?

RE: [AMRadio] 500 Kc (was Re: 450T amp)
That would be way cool! You sure wouldn't have to go far for a receiver. When I was in high school we used to play on the AM broadcast band with small transmitters we'd cobble up from AC/DC projects. Not much range, but lots of fun! Rick On Behalf Of Bry Carling Why the heck don't they give hams 455 kHz as a CW channel since no one is using it any more? Or even as an AM CHANNEL?!!!

After reading all these posts I suppose that the single 803 in a 100W MO circuit, TBW-5 CAY-52238 350-1000Kc, would be a good candidate if xtal controlled. It's a classic piece.

Re: [AMRadio] 500 Kc (was Re: 450T amp)
If the M.O. output is stable, with and without keying, then it would be just fine, for CW anyway, one of my transmitters is the RCMA ET-8010A pair of 211s in the final 807 driver, 807 M.O. and is extremely stable for that era, remarkably so. There are those who would say you need the latest digital whiz-bang Gimcrack but that is not necessarily the case. One way to find out if 500 KC might be of interest to you is to dust off a receiver tune to the freqs. and see what you hear, mind it will be mostly CW, and CW beacons for now, but this is just the first round. Signals are being monitored and you can see if/when folks are transmitting over the internet by going to http://www.lowfer.us/grabber.htm or for Buffalo, NY http://eshop1.chem.buffalo.edu/Buf-Grab.html or for Kellog, Ohio http://ne-ohio-grabber.kn8azn.com/NE_Ohio_Grabber.html or for Seneca, Missouri http://www.lowfer.us/mograb.htm There are lots of opportunities for development work, (homebrewing) antenna work, (a 30 to 40 foot vertical works), and testing your skills against band conditions.
