My two main AM frequencies leave little room on the upper end of the medium wave band for a third frequency, devoted to testing. Unless you count 1710.

Of course 1710 would be a poor choice for regular programing because of its limited power allowance, but many antenna tests actually benefit from micro-mini-power because it is easy to observe, at close range , whether a given antenna performs as well or better than another antenna.

We’ll give it a try and tell you what happens.
