WBLS will be live Sunday, October 4th at 18:00 UTC (14:00 local time). Broadcast will be about 2 hours long.

Frequency may be plus/minus a few KHz. New transmitter seems to work and should, give about 5W or so. https://postimg.cc/gallery/txJqskC
The transmitter design is based on the one from here: https://n8nmsteve.blogspot.com/2017/08/a-mightier-mite-from-michigan.html
I replaced the first stage with an 11m MMM, since the unaltered circuit wouldn't oscillate with a 26MHz crystal. AM is provided to the circuit through the MMM part, except with the LM386's gain set to about 50, and linked to the MMM through a 1000uF cap.

If any issues crop up with the new transmitter, the double mite from last time will be used as a back up (about 1W power).
