The "modern" SS rigs do NOT generate AM in that manner.
The last radio that I saw that used a carrier with ONE sideband for AM
was the Collins KWS-1. That is precisely why I did NOT procure one when
the opportunity arose.
As to Vestigal SB, that INDEED is used in Amateur TV signals, however, I
cannot remember whether it is for slow scan or fast scan. It eludes me
at the moment, AND no carrier is used.

signal works this way.
It is my understanding the modern RICEBOXES that generate AM do it in the
exact way.
I know it is not real AM but may people just don't have access to a good
Johnson transmitter or DX-100.
