ESSB from a K3

[Fred (FL)]

OK ...........

What good is ESSB?  For good, bad, illegal -
K3 is capable apparently of generating it, in
some mode.  If one can't transmit it, legally
or ethically - why for heavan's sake - would
I want the capability to receive it?

Are us poor hams, destined to have 2.7khz
or LESS, forever and a day?  Does SSB, as it
did in 1964 - have to sound a little limited,
a little hard to read, a little squeakier
than those good ole AM rigs?
(boy this ought to get some posts!)  :)

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.

Fred,

I really think you are phishing, but then I am not the list cop.

IMHO, if you want to transmit 'high fidelity', then you should obtain a
commercial broadcasting license.  In the ham bands, I believe the rule
of minimum bandwidth required for communications should prevail.  2.8 or
less bandwidth for communications purposes is adequate in most instances
for communications purposes IIRC.  Another opinion - in the ham bands,
the 'be kind to your neighbor' rule applies, and excessive bandwidth
violates that premise.

73,
Don W3FPR
