That's why I never use ssb, it sounds nasty, even ESSB. There is NO reason to run narrow ssb if the band is wide open, what is that hurting?
I am glad I can still run AM, which sounds good and is easy to build equipment for. Some people seem to think its important to always use the minimum bandwidth for communications, but I don't think that would be ssb at all.... I don't bother to get on when things are crowded, although CW would be fine on a crowded band.
