Default Re: 657 kHz MW seems to be dead!

There certainly some overlap around 657kHz as sometimes I'd get another station breaking through when listening to R Wales on 657 at the time. I will however miss the almost perfect reception on my AM only sets. I'd like to know if there will be an Optimod going cheap as my pantry TX sounds thin and tinny, not having a particular audio frequency response. I'll look for a graphic equaliser down the car booty tomorrow .
