I'm not Robert, but...

Prior to FM multiplex stereo, there were some experimental stereo
broadcasters who transmitted one channel on FM and the other on AM.  A
friend of mine has an old Lafayette tuner set up this way, along with
a plug-in jack for a multiplex adapter when they became available.

I think there was quite a large amount of effort to produce wideband
AM.  Amplitude modulation itself certainly has no such limitations;
however it is possible that tuning the tower system to handle that
wide a bandwitdth within MW would be a problem.   Don't know.
