"Paul Clay" wrote in message ... Do any of the solid state rigs from the mid-80s to present put out a good AM signal? If so, which ones? Is the conventional wisdom true that only by resurrecting a boatanchor tube transmitter can an operator get a nice sounding AM signal? Thanks! Am surprised that none of the below posts mentioned the Icom 706 series! My IC706 (both of them) do excellent sounding AM and I have gotten quite a few compliments. 73 Jerry K4KWH |

Those old tube transmitters and recievers sounded great. Heath kit and Knight kit. Point to point wiring and tubes!!! Ahhhh, those were the days. Rocky |
