[RFI] Another Solar Panel Interference Case

[jimk8mr at aol.com]

A couple of years ago a friend who was a BC consulting engineer told me he was doing a lot of design work for low cost AM BC antennas. Seems that the stations want to stay on the air  (I assume after selling the real estate around their antenna farms) because if they went off the air, the station would have to be written off the books, affecting all sorts of financial issues.

Many AM station bother staying on the because they can on operate on the FM  band via a FM translator license.
