>>The low dial position was good for the unlicensed carrier-current
stations because the distance they could legally radiate was a direct
function of the wavelength, and the lower the frequency, the longer the
wavelength. 540 might actually have been better than 640, but it wasn't
until later that US stations began operating on 540. Also, since 540 was
not a US clear channel, there was greater likelihood of interfering with a
US station than there was on 640. When WHRB had a carrier-current AM.
didn't it operate on 540?<<

It was on 550 for decades.  The phone no. then, and for years after, was
derived from the AM frequency and ended in 9550.
