Wouldn't it be nice if some LW frequencies were opened up and

The aviation NDBs will probably be phased out before long, as I
understand NDB instrument approaches are no longer going to be
certified. If so, that portion of the spectrum might be reallocated

There's the rub. A for-profit broadcasting enterprise would need an
audience that possessed a suitable receiver, or the broadcast content
would have to be compelling enough to warrant the purchase of a
frequency converter for reception.
