As an AM TX and general domestic AM dummy, what does all this mean, about
not being able to put a 1kW signal into some type of tower? What does the
power and or tower have to do with not being able to feed full power into
the antenna?

There was an AM not far from me at WABV, that was on a Class C Channel and
supposedly had a 5/8 wave tower.. and put the full 1KW into the tower.
Glad we could try and help!

The station that received the QSL is WNBH-1340 in New Bedford, MA. The
report came from Finland. There have been a few reports from Scandinavia
in
the past few years.
WNBH is a bit of an anomoly in that it has a tall tower, yet puts the
full
kilowatt into in. No power cutback to make it an equivalent
kilowatt/quarter wave tower. On vacation on Monhegan Island off the
coast
of Maine I could hear WNBH if I nulled the other pests. It does get out
well.
Thanks to all for the ear work!
