OMG What am I going to do with this??
A friend brought me new toy to play with yesterday. Oh geez what am I to do with this??
I am now the proud (I think) owner of a McMartin BA-K1 AM radio transmitter!! The transmitter came from a local station that shut down a few months back. My friend's dad bought the building, and my friend traded me this transmitter for a used Jenn-Air in wall oven. Initially, we were going to sell it, and he left that up to me to deal with. It didn't sell, and I am returning to sea next week, so I don't really have time to try pushing it for sale anymore. He expressed interest in the oven that we were getting rid of, and told me he would be happy to swap the two. Well heck yeah... why say no? So now it's here, and of course I can't fire it up in any way. I'm sure it needs to be hooked up to 240, and I wouldn't want to mess anything up without having it looked over by someone familiar with these first. So, I guess at some later date, I will have to investigate getting a license to operate such a beast. In any case, it's sorta cool to have!
