One place where VHF AM is still alive is radio foxhunting (RDF).
The comments I've seen in the group so far are filament-based,
hardly usable for a portable transmitter to be hidden under the trees.

A lot of ex-PMR equipment has a closed control loop to reduce the
RF output to what the communication plan allows for (so PMR folk
can use the same kit for customers who need 0.3 watts or customers
who need 25 watts; all that's needed is a twist of the pot inside).

Hope this helps,

Thanks Geert - Yes, it does help because it's another strategy to
consider. Your input is appreciated!
