I too morn the loss of AM transmissions but I am not even considering dumping my woodies and early transistor sets.
I will use pantry transmitters, a bit of Bluetooth, some FM adaptors, whatever it takes.
We radio preservers are in no different a position than 405 line TV guys and there are plenty of those still rebuilding TVs.
All that has changed or is changing is the loss of the signal in the form that our radios were made for. We simply need to adapt how we deliver the AM signal to the radios.
With the falling prices of decent AM radios it could be the new golden dawn for us fanatical radio fixers, not a death knell at all.
