If I try to listen to KABC in AMSYNCLSB (or USB) mode I get a jet

Drake R8B with a transformer coupled 50' random wire.
Edweenie (the fake Hispanic) will be along shortly to tell you that you've got
it all wrong.
Ironically, his station's (1020) IBOC is broken.
If I listen to plain AMSYNC (or plain AM) on the R8B there is no
noise, so apparently the HD sidebands are phase inverted from each
other. But I cannot use my SW2 in the synchonous mode at all on an HD
station, as you cannot listen to both sidebands at once.
If it stays broke let the folks here know:
