The KWS-1 has issues in that it transmits ONLY one sideband NOT both.
That is precisely WHY I passed by the one that was/is <eventually>
available WITH the matching receiver. Both are completely restored.
As such - it is a POOR example to cite for "AM vs SSB"
First a transmitter that transmits both sidebands is NOT SSB. SSB
means exactly SINGLE SIDE BAND. If a transmitter transmits both
sidebands it is DSB for Double Side Band...unless it also wastes time
with the carrier then it is AM.
And I did not refer to the KWS1 when I said the Collins properly tuned
had great audio. Or, actually I said it didn't sound like donald
duck. BUT...my 1958 S-Line, 32S1, 75S1 and 30L1 does have great audio
that sounds like you are sitting across the room from the other party.
It was precisely because of the audio that in 1958 I fell in love with
the Collins S-Line series of communication gear.
