I see from an Australian newsgroup that somebody is seriously
considering and making plans to cover the whole continent using a pair
of longwave, 1-megawatt, broadcast transmitters.

The antennas are to be Professor Hately's CFA's which perform
according to Maxwell's 4th Equation.

Should somebody break the bad news to them before its too late? Or
should we wait and have a good laugh?

Neither. We should sell them the New & Improved version which performs
according to Beethoven's 5th. Or maybe a 5th of a good Highland malt?

Well if you must know, CFA stands for "Country Fire Authority", the (old
name) volunteer firefighters in the state of Victoria...

You confused yet? grin

Perhaps it will perform better upside-down!

Hi Mike,

1 MW into a cfa from the powerplant on a train running circles within
a mile of a accident site? AND to overcome local broadcast stations?
I might have agreed until that second proviso.
