 About AM vs FM. I'm a former radio amateur, and it's mostly the technical knowledge from this that makes me head toward AM. Some information to consider for you:

- Weak AM signals is much easier to hear than weak FM signals.
- FM is BUILT to keep interference out as interference was a problem for AM radio. Read this line more than once, how is the spirit affecting the radio? INTERFERENCE most likely.
- AM doesn't travel farther, but you are right in the sense that you can hear an AM station much farther away. If we also consider the AM vs FM band, then you are absolutely right as the AM band as far better reach.

I have am transmitters, but I'm still in trouble here as I have no transmitter that is very low powered and that's apparently something I need... hmm hmm hmm... I'm seeing shielding walls for my inner eye... yagi's aimed the other way, a loop nulling the signal out just enough? I'll have to think abit about this.

Joe: I'd still love to hear your comments about my last question!
