Well at the risk of starting another long blowout, I would like to meekly make the point that I find some justification in outboard processing for AM if will add a little punch and clarity to the sidebands and increase the average power in them. I think since AM in the U.S. is limited to about half the power it once was, this is a pale attempt to make up for that but it's better than nothing. I want to be clear that I'm not advocating the kind of distorted processing found in those RF speech processors that the contest and dx ops use with all knobs fully clockwise, but rather the gentle audio compressors and fast attack peak limiters that will slightly raise the average audio level going into the rig maintaining a very low THD.
