I'd get a part 15 AM transmitter and broadcast your own material. Your 37-116 has a much wider band width than radios do today. This will not help you when listening to broadcast stations using your 37-116 but if you get a SSTran AMT3000 AM transmitter it has a wide band width so the material you broadcast will have much improved frequency response. SSTran claims 20-20k response though I doubt it is that good. My father has a 37-690 and I built him a AMT3000 and the sound is very good not stereo but as good as mono gets.

It's not what you don't know that hurts you it's what you know that's not so.
