Bad report on SSB-modulation

Karsten Eppert (DK4AS)
Hi,

I am getting reports from stations, who live in the neighbourhood that
my SSB sounds like my PA is operating as Class C-Amplifier. I have
checked the bias - that is ok as described in the manual.

What can I do to check my modulation other than listening to other
peoples reports? What else can let the modulation sound like from a
Class C-PA?

You might be getting RF in the audio. The K2 seems very prone to that. I had similar problems with terrible-souding audio which were from rfi.
