But since at least the mid 80s (with the exception of the Ten Tec Paragon II) all modern rigs do full DSB. It's just that they do low level AM, which is very dependent upon ALC level control (which can make then sound pretty nasty if you don't properly set up carrier levels). BTW, the FT-101 runs AM as one sideband with a carrier, IIRC. People have told me (and I heard a .wav file of some FT-101E transmissions verifying this), that if it's set up decently, it makes pretty good sounding AM. 73, Ellen - AF9J 73, Ellen - AF9J ______________________________________________________________ Our Main Website: http://www.amfone.net AMRadio mailing list List Rules (must read!): http://w5ami.net/amradiofaq.html List Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/amradio Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.html Post: mailto:AMRadio@mailman.qth.net To unsubscribe, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word unsubscribe in the message body.
