Transmitter |
Continental 315-B 5000 Watts Transmitter |
|
 The transmitter used in the 60s and 70s was a Continental 315-B 5000 watt model. The station operated 5000 Watts daytime and 1000 Watts nighttime. A flick of a switch made the changeover and was easily heard when listening at dusk and dawn. |

5 kW. Transmitter and should be similar to WQAM’s. Courtesy of www.oldradio.com

Hopefully someone will provide an actual photo of WQAM’s Transmitting equipment someday.
