That makes sense... but in this scenario, we were talking about a group of
100mw "expensive toys", not full-power AM stations. Very different scale.
My comment about the creative engineering wasn't meant to imply that this was
a first time this kind of thing has been done... (I know full well it's an
"old" concept to sync AM transmitters). I just thought that it was a novel way
to adapt equipment that was intended for a very different purpose to solve a
real-world problem as inexpensively as possible: Feed audio & sync to a number
of low-power transmitters across a given area. That is the essence of "BTN" -
Bent Technology Network.
What is BTN? The page below explains it nicely. :)
