Instead of the usual complaining about the weather or gas prices.
Some of these old "Elmers" on HF should try it And THAT is what amateur radio is all about.ĭo I think his ideas could/should be directly put into use? No! I applaud You never know what new technology could come out Great inventions started out with someone doing something different withĬurrent technology. However, I like that he's actually trying to do something different. On HF with ESSB then he's totally wrong since ESSB will be a waste of My thoughts are if this guy actually wants to replace all SSB transmissions Narrow audio passband with just a hint of presence rise and a light touch of processing will get you heard over the noise.
If you want to work DX or be heard under adverse conditions all too common especially at the bottom of the sunspot cycle now you need all the punch you can get. The bottom line here is be it AM or SSB if you want hi-fi all you may expect is a local rag chew under ideal propagation conditions. Due to their severe bandwidth restrictions the broadcasters pump up the compression to the point of causing ear bleed. Oh, they out perform the SW broadcasters by a WIDE margin. For best results use broadcast equipment and engineering practices, nothing sounds better on any band. Here's a little hint, everybody including the FCC tends to look the other way for the AM crowd, those using modded out "boat anchors" and AM broadcast transmitters sound superb. The whole idea why Art Collins pushed the military toward SSB was because of it's narrow bandwidth and communications effectiveness, both lost with this so-called "enhanced" SSB. This leads to QRM complaints at best and more often these days what is known as a "Rileygram", the "PC" replacement for the old "pink slip", a citation from the FCC. So very few can master the theory and fewer still can afford proper equipment and end up exceeding the bandwidth limit. I totally agree, if they want hi-fi they should work for the broadcast stations.
