RE: [AMRadio] AM Mobile
Man! If those guys would put their energy, money and expertise toward a legal hobby like Amateur Radio it would sure be great! Unfortunately, the ones I have rubbed shoulders with through the years seem to like the outlaw status illegal CB brings. To each his own.

Re: [AMRadio] AM Mobile
Some -non-filtered- amps are getting 350w out of the same pair. I figure 8, with proper filtering is 400~500w (conservatively) and with 25w of drive, should make for some fairly decent sounding AM, from a properly adjusted rice-box. 350W ? No... Eight of those will give you 1200 watts (in CB speak! - grin) __ Our Main Website: http://www.amfone.net AMRadio mailing list List Rules (must read!): http://w5ami.net/amradiofaq.html List Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/amradio Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.html Post: mailto:AMRadio@mailman.qth.net To unsubscribe, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word unsubscribe in the message body.

(8) would be 1400, and now we're talking perhaps getting an easy 125 to 150w of carrier out of the thing, and being able to fully modulate it, with some room for transients in the audio. Still, solid state devices -must- come with some sort of tuned output, otherwise the parasites generated from the even harmonics will eat the amp alive. -- Driving your AM Rig without a scope, is like driving your car at night, without headlights.
