USB Stations ? (a bit OT)
 
Hello,

Wish to check out my receiver/antenna on USB signals.

Having a bit of trouble latching on to any.

Are there any USB stations/transmitters that are more or less always
transmitting, and have a reasonably strong signal ?
Live outside of Boston.

For LSB ?

Thanks, and Happy Holidays,
Bob

Hi Bob,

Tune into international shortwave broadcasts. Even though they are
AM, the have both upper and lower sidebands (yes, I know, didactic).
Still and all, it will give you some feel for tuning a signal in. For
some receivers that can split a band with narrow IF filtering, this is
a good way to DX weak AM signals.

Try WWV at 10 MHz (or any of the other frequecies they transmit on -
multiples of 5 MHz). It is AM so both sidebands are present.

Aviation HF stations are USB. For example, Gander and New York VOLMET
stations on 3485, 6604, 10051, and 13270 MHz
