Exactly Grant. Many of the early SSB rigs were basically SSB-only. So adding a tone to the SSB signal was the simplest way to send "cw". But the opposite sideband suppression is never perfect - too often far from it.
That was no big deal back when over half of the signals on a "phone" band were 6 kHz wide AM signals. 73 Ron AC7AC -----Original Message----- From: Elecraft [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Grant Youngman Sent: Wednesday, July 27, 2016 3:10 PM To: [email protected] Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Elecraft] K3 Transmitting CW in SSB mode It's just a"few lines of code" ;) All done in DSP most likely. Simpler than doing the same thing in an analog radio.
