Philco 17 SW band not working
#9

> The modern Broadcast band extends from 550 - 1600 K.C.

Not to argue, but the modern AM broadcast band in the USA is 540 to 1700 kc (kHz). The FCC expanded the AM band above 1600 kc starting in 1990; the first stations were licensed to use the expanded portion of the band in 1995.

The 540 kc frequency was added to the USA broadcast band in the early 1950s.
