K3 AM Synchronous Detector and the NY Jets

John W2XS
WEPN broadcasts the NY Jets game on 1050 kHz AM. Their antenna is in NJ, and their signal here on Long Island is usually weak with a lot of QSB and sidebands cancelling. This Sunday, however, I listened to the entire game with a clean and clear signal, thanks to the AM Synchonous Detector.  USB seemed better than LSB.

Thanks to the Elecraft guys for a great option.

I was doing some work in the office = shack. The radio broadcast was several seconds ahead of the TV broadcast, so, if I heard something exciting, I could rush into the other room and watch the action.

The bad news: even with the clear signal, the Jets still lost :(
