Re: Topband: AM interference on 1840

["Tim Childers K9CQ" <k9cq@k9cq.com>]

Mark, I use a receiving array and have put a high pass filter on the 
receiving array to cut the broadcast band down. I have an AM station near 
here that was doing the same thing.  If you can run a separate RX only 
antenna it helps.  If not then a notch filter for 930 may work that you can 
transmit through.

I have a local AM station here (about 3 km away) that operates on 930 kHz. 
Their second harmonic is 1860.  Seems they are operating within 
specification and abide by FCC regulations. But still the second harmonic 
wipes out any DX on or near that frequency. Signal strength is around S7.
