I was discussing that topic at the last radio meet.
A fellow collector remarked that the sound is somewhat compressed at the station, for better results when using solid state transmitters????
I know someone could chime-in with a better understanding of this theory.
The AM on my Toyota Prius, doesn't sound that good.
I bought an older Japanese built HH Scott receiver, that was designed for better AM reception, as it has a three gang AM tuning condenser and tuned RF stage.
