It could be - but I am unsure whether panels of that size can generate the necessary wattage. It is possible perhaps - you can usually get up to a megawatt per acre with current technology. Unless they have big storage batteries, it won't keep them on the air all night, though. Bruce They have a Nautel transmitter as I recall. It uses 55 KW at idle, 85 KW at 100% modulation, (not counting POS IBOC). |
