True Double Sideband AM?

Bob-165
Lately I have really become very interested in AM on both 75/80 and
160 meters and I recently read a review of the K3 stating that it was
a "TRUE" double sideband AM. Is this true? Any comments, feedback or
thoughts in this regard would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Bob,
I used my Collins 75A-3 with the 6kc filter to adjust the microphone gain on
AM. AM is definitely double sideband and sounds very good. I have made
several AM contacts on 160,75 and 6 meters. I found that setting the speech
compression to 0 gets the best results using an MH-2 microphone.
I am still learning how to use the K3 - I seem to find a new feature every
day.
73, Bill
