I don't know how ya'll, but since AM is allowed as a mode, and it uses
DOUBLE sideband, I'd say we were allowed 5.4kc bandwidth.
Well Geoff, that's one way to look at it. One thing's for sure, I'm not
planning on changing MY operating habits based on this hair-brained scheme
(except, for, perhaps, to increase my AM activity on the bands a bit!).
Somewhere, I have a video I made of my big rig (that I usually run at
100w) on a dummy load, with +/- 3500v on the plates of the final,
producing around 1250 watts of carrier output (according to the power
meter on the Heathkit Tuner). I'm not running that same power supply
any more, and it's since been cannibalized for part in a different
supply, but I still have that transformer and need to get some larger
capacitors. I have plenty of chokes, for a choke-input supply.
Damnit all anyway.. if it weren't for 'neighbors', I'd run the rig at
500w DC input -all the time-.
