Default Old Xmtrs, "Ancient Modulation" and Modern Amps

Nobody used a linear amplifier for AM in amateur radio circles.
They either used medium power to start with, or went with a full kilowatt
amplifier with suitable modulator. They made sure they had the space,
and made sure the floor was strong enough.


You must not work AM. I talk daily on AM (with my Valiant)and find hams
running linear amps at legal limit. They ALL sound good. Most are
driving the amp with old xmtrs....
