Default WLW - 700 kHz, 500 kW, 100% modulation, no limiter

In case you missed it, the 500 KW was in the 1930s. 250 KW of audio was
not easy to come by. Last I heard WLW was using a Harris 50 KW digital AM
transmitter. See
http://download.harris.com/app/publi...d.asp?fid=1489 . Digital here
means that the AM signal is digitally synthesized at high level. There is
no modulator.

Harris has supplied MW AM transmitters of this design at carrier powers
up to 2 megawatts.
