Am I really that lost and there is a pre/de-emphasis for AM?

Since NRSC II, yes, there is.

Long time no see in the group, welcome back,

Thanks. I've been here all along. Mostly lurking.

and I have leaerned that yes there is a standard
pre/de-emphasis for MW/AM/BCB stations.
Looking at an audio spectragram of the stations
that I can receive here in central Kentucky it
is clear I wasn't the only person unaware of this
standard. There is no sign that any of them
have anything other then lousy compressers.

....and THAT is about the most definitive description of the
problem I've encountered in 48 years of working at Radio.

Thanks to everyone who clarifed this issue for me.
