Even though you don't know it, you are agreeing with me.


I wan't trying to disagree with you.


Take a listen to SSB voice on any amateur band or CB if
you like. The preferred SSB signal is one which enhances its
intelligibility. This is done with some sort of compression which
will be a point in between your example and no compression at
all.


Sure, I do it all the time, just not to the extreme. But as long as
there is some sort of correlation between audio peaks, and current draw,
there will be peaks and nulls which can be filled in to some (however
small) degree by a filter cap.


Well, I have no problem with the theory behind stiffening caps. They
do work, but the crux of the issue is to what extent they work in the
original example (1 farad, dx1600, SSB)

If you were listening to the above example you would not be able to
tell if the set up was capped or not.



Do it yourself. Rig up a box-o-caps through a switch. Then have someone do some
talking with and without the caps. I think you will notice a difference, even if
you are just running barefoot.


Recovery time is reduced with compression, and simply put the $50
spent on a capacitor can be better spent.


I can use it to buy a deep cycle battery. I'm sure that would do a
better job.....


If I had the extra $50 I would make better use of it on a echo mike.
Just kidding.



You can get a MidiVerb for that much.
