Is it my radio?

There is no excuse for a modern transmitter to be anything other than dead-on accurate frequency.

AND...the domestic Beeb networks have been doing this for half a century.
Let us set foot into our WABAC machine and revisit this thread I created a few years ago.

I only wish I had studied your thread before I launched a similar one 14 topics later. In less than 3 days I (and my 3 threads) wound up being ostracised.

Scroll up to my "Towers of Babble" topic. You can see that the idea holds a great deal of interest (it is one of the 'most hits' topics on AM Forum). It might have taken off if the moderators hadn't queered things.

Good luck! I suggest that running naked through a briar patch is far easier than attempting to reason with many engineers on the value of synchronizing AM carriers. All the pertinent arguments pro and con for this subject are well represented in the "Babble" posts.

Thanks for your kind words.
I've not been on that that board for some time because while many of the posters are very talented and perhaps the tops in their field, and their experience and positions with large group broadcasters show this, they do not think out of the box. They could argue that I am not a professional engineer, but I come up with my ideas from a somewhat educated listener's perspective. We have a rimshot signal in Miami from West Palm Beach which is co-channel with a legasy high power station in Havana, Cuba. I swear, I could tolerate Radio Progresso's audio under the Palm Beach station a lot more than that constant hideous five hz fading.
