Some of your AM stations are now broadcasting using HD. I know someone who has a Sangean HDR16 HD radio and he has forwarded me recordings of HD sound from AM which doesn't sound too bad. It sounds as though Am Stereo tuners were as different as standard tuners were. I had one which I built from a kit which was extremely sensitive whilst my Sony tuner was as deaf as a doorpost.

They even had a 10KHZ notch filter to avoid hearing that tone if it was generated by an adjacent station in the United States. I suspect they had models to filter out the 9 KHZ tone in much of the rest of the world. The biggest gripe I had with my Carver tuner was that it was not very sensitive on AM. It also had a very nice FM section in it as well with some interesting noise cancelling options. While we don't have stereo AM in the United States any longer, there are still AM stations with very nice audio that use a fairly wide bandwidth. However, the audio on AM now is very much limited by the bandwidth used by most radios of today, and I understand that the need isn't as strong as it once was with streaming and other options.

Enjoy. For those who lived through the period of Stereo AM and who owned a Stereo AM tuner or radio? Sit back and remember. I found this sample of Stereo AM - from radio station 3MP in Melbourne - on Youtube. I’d love to know what type of tuner this recording was made from as the band width is quite wide. My Sony tuner was capable of this but only after it had been adjusted. Anyway hear for yourself. https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DIPPOEIfU0bo%26t%3D3573s&data=02%7C01%7C%7C2676da24eea64cf7c52008d721dff5d0%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637015118088352475&sdata=T9W7QtOsV3qA0ghtdkOpTgnZzEh1LcH4BKy3OONSAGI%3D&reserved=0 -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
