Music S9 10K wide

1845 -- Shouldn't there be some sort of gentleman's agreement about consuming that much bandwidth on an already narrow allocation for pirates? Especially as the average receiver is filtering up to a maximum of 12kHz AM. Definitely diminishing returns for being that wide on 40 unless willful jamming is the ulterior motive.
1856 -- I am quite serious. I suspect many would-be pirates on 40 are regularly forced to to wait for that 14kHz spread to vanish before broadcasting, especially as many park from 6925 to ~6960 with 6940 largely unusable due to a utility. So to consume 14kHz on a tiny band historically associated with pirates is not very neighborly.

Are you serious? There is no ALLOCATION here. Hahaha.
I'm running 14kHz wide, 7kHz on each sideband, both independently modulated. Yes, thats ISB AM stereo. I guess people just like shit sounding audio?

There were exactly ZERO stations on air when I fired up. Zero. I can easily dial the signal back up or down as a I see fit, asymmetrically at that if I need to. If there were more stations on air, I would probably dial the bandwidth back, or if band conditions were worse. Crying about nothing.
