RFB,
I very much appreciate your detailed reply. Certainly give me a lot to think about. I’m really just trying to learn this stuff and get back into electronics again after getting out of the engineering business 30 years ago. I was hoping I could make crude measurements with my old (borrowed) scope and avoid buying a lot of expensive test equipment.
As I posted below, I really doubt this TH is putting out over 1/2 watt as I can barely pick it up at the end of my 300′ driveway. My other talking house would go 1/2 mile w/ the same setup.
On the plus side, when I tune it to 540, I can pick up the signal at three places on the AM Dial!! (;>))
