Dave: with all due respect, think about what you have said. you first assumed I was on SSB and said that I should not have been in the AM WINDOW, now you are saying that I was on the wrong freq. if you go back to what I said you will see that I moved 7kc away from the station lower in freq, that is barely enough to avoid qrm. My audio at starts to fall off at 5 kc so I am about 10 kc wide, +and- 5kc if the other gentleman also had the same response then we have a slight overlap of about 1.5 kc each. And that does not include what our receivers listen too. the only way that I even knew that I was that close was because I turned on the rice box as an accurate? source and zero beat it. If you chose to crowd and run a 2.1 ssb filter, you will be much better off running sideband. my audio train and voice have only minimal freq above 5kc, probably Fs and Ss hit a little above that. The available band for voice xmission runs from a little above 3.6 to a little below 4.0. we can operate anywhere in that area and on any freq. read the regulations. I actually thought we were through with this discussion. Now I am heading to the garage and turn on the big dog, if the freq is clear I will try to be on 3,704,711 CYs I think that is a prime number. not sure. if that area is busy I may be as low as 3.68XXX or up to 3.72xxx Come on down there and join me.
