(SPAM= society for the preservation >of amplitude modulation). Are you implying that there is something wrong with amplitude modulation? Me and my 1938 vintage Crosley plate-modulated 2KW BC transmitter have a bone to pick with you. SSB means group delay across the audio spectrum due to cheap brickwall filters. SSB means nonlinear amplitude response due to errors in detection, and floating frequency shifts up and down the audio band. I hope your next QSO is so distorted that you can't even get the full call from the other guy, just some exotic, tantalizing prefix. Maybe that will teach you that amplitude modulation is the way to go for any serious work (or DSBSC if you mind losing a little power on your carrier. I don't care about a bit more power, since my electric bills are high enough). May you be sentenced to an eternity in hell with roundworms and a misaligned Heathkit HW-101. --scott
