[BC] LPAM (was Smallest AM Radiator/TIS)

[Paul B. Walker, Jr.]

Scott:

The AM1000 Rangemaster does nowhere near what a TIS does.

If the AM1000 is tuned properly and has some processing behind it, 
it'll get out about 1 mile soild in fair ground conductivity.

If a TIS was tuned properly, had an efficent antenna and the audio 
was better, it'd get out 5+ miles solid in decent groundcondiuctivity areas.

Come to think of it, with this crazy petition that is out about LPAM,
why not give these people stations with 5-10 watts, or the field
strength limit of 2 mv/m @ 1.5 km, with an antenna no more than 10-15'.
In rural areas, or small towns with no local AM station, that's plenty
to cover a small town, and even cover a high school football game.
IMHO...despite what some say, it's not going to cause nighttime
interference. I know Powell Way on this list will debate me tooth and
nail on this, but if that is the case, then Keith Hamilton's Rangmaster
1000, Part 15 box should be outlawed as well. It does almost as much as
the TIS station's transmitter and antenna system. Now this idea would
serve a small community!
