“You might, and I do emphasize might, be able to take a 160 meter base loaded amateur radio mobile antenna, and extend the whip to take its resonance down to 1700Khz – a few manufacturers make those, or at least, they used to (ProAm is one, I saw one recently on e-bay). I don’t know if you could do that and remain within the 3 meter – 10 foot – Part 15 limits. I’ve also never tried this specifically for the AM broadcast band (although I’ve done similar transformations, such as replacing the whip on a 29 Mhz amateur antenna to take it 2Mhz lower on the CB band).”
Actually, I have thought about this as well and wanted some opinions…
Thanks Artisan.
