The IMD shouldnt be a significant problem unless something is overdriven. However, you see that with PSK31 and to a lesser extent RTTY fairly often on the bands, although most of what i see is 60 cycle hum and audio harmonics related to that, rather than just pure overdrive. AFSK, etc., is th

Once the "driver", i.e. transceiver is operated linearly for soundcard RTTY, a non-linear class-C amp can follow and the result, and high power, is the same as direct FSK, because the drive to the amp is a pure RF signal - no competitive loss to the high power contester! 73, Skip KH6TY On 7/2
