Particularly when well EQ'd, the fidelity and intelligibility is greatly increased even at a 40Hz to 3.5Khz transmit band-pass. One does not have to second guess what is being said by the other station, as at that band-pass it is starting to sound like they are right in your shack sitting next to you while conversing.
Being unsociable is either knowingly transmitting into someone else's band-pass, or transmitting a broad signal in crowded conditions, both of which says a lot about the individual operator as opposed to the bandwidth he is currently occupying. Remember, this operator is on a Flex, and can easily adjust their transmit bandwidth on the fly. 73, Mike W5CUL -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Maarten Sent: Wednesday, October 17, 2007 10:02 PM To: FlexRadio Reflector Subject: Re: [Flexradio] New Bandplan effective Jan 2008 What is wrong with 2.7kHz bandwith on SSB? Why would anyone need more for SSB communication? The panadapter shows how excessively wide some hame signals are. Not an effecient or social way of communicating. 73 Maarten N1DZ ----- Original Message ----- From: "K6JEK" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "FlexRadio Reflector" <FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz> Sent: Wednesday, October 17, 2007 2:19 AM Subject: Re: [Flexradio] New Bandplan effective Jan 2008 > That band plan is a really awful thing.
