It should!


Yes :-)



I just switch to SSB-mode selecting the sideband and the bandwidth
wich is working best. I'm rarely listenig in AM-mode.



If you had a good sync detector, you might listen more in AM mode. A
good sync detector basically provides auto-ECSS.


AFAIK the NRD-525 *is* in ECSS-mode when switched to AM. It allways adds
its own carrier frequency, except when switched to FM mode.
Nontheless I like SSB much more than AM.


Actually it is true ECSS. The carrier is derived form the input signal
so there is no need for careful tuning.

Is it selecting a particular sideband?
