AFAIK, There are no HF transceivers with a sync' detector.

I wonder why it is that none of the big three (Kenwood, Icom, Yaesu)
have included synchronous detection circuitry on their HF
transceivers. A lot of these rigs are loaded with all kinds of
goodies, right? And there's the constant competition to put out the
ultimate rig... And, I mean, c'mon, it's not as though these units
are used exclusively for amateur communications... The rx sections
are general coverage, after all...

Most ham voice communications are SSB where you would not use sync
detection. A few ham operators use AM mode and it would help there I
guess but the percentage using AM is small by comparison.
