What is being claimed is simply this: If you generate SSB (either sideband) at 9 MHz and mix it with a 5-5.5 MHz VFO you will get the same sideband on either the sum (20 meters) or difference (75 meters) mixing product. It's not a function of the rig used, or the time period, or whether it's phasing or filter. The math proves it. 73 de Jim, N2EY _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft You must subscribe to post.
