I don't know what school you went to, but your RF Engineering Degree,
must have come from a Cracker Jacks Box...... Typical AM Broadcast
Field Strength Measurements for Antenna Pattern Contours are done
at 100 uv/Meter, and those levels are a VARY STRONG Signals, and usually
out from the Transmitter site, many miles.



about 180' from the business end of the 3-tower array of WWKB-AM's 50KW
blowtorch in Hamburg, NY is a very nice looking house in a very nice

I wonder how they shut down any lights in that house?.....(c;

Field Strength in the living room is in KV/m......hee hee.

the attic to power all the lighting from rectified RF 24/7/365! Wonder if
anyone makes an AM band resonant water heater??...hmm....
