I have an old (Aug 1991) 25 LTD Classic someone just gave me and it all
works except it`s just factory stock in everyway and doesn`t put out
worth a damn...I`ve been away from the game so long I`ve lost all my
notes on the various tricks to tune it up beyond swapping out the final
and driver..Clip this..change that...?...Maybe some of the old timers
who remember me and know I`m cool can lend a hand..Send me an e-mail if
you want to avoid the trolls who`ll turn this into an anti-keyclown

OK. I've got one on the shelf. I don't use AM only radios.
I know it works. I tried it once.

Anybody make an offer for it. Shipping would be actual postage from 212..

I should clean up this Uniden PC76XL and get that off my shelf, too.
Also a TRC-422 and a TRC-422A just sits and sits.

I'm not sure if I should sell the Regency Range Gain, Lafayette LMS-40,
Midland 76-858, and forget about my 2950.

I spent good money on the LMS-40 to get it repaired because some dork
had tried to put extra channels in it and had really butchered it.
I'd have to sell that one for at least $100. It's in good shape externally.

I also have a lightning struck 148GTL. The owner said it's DOA.
I'm not going to bother testing it. His A99 was toothpicks in the yard!

DONTSPAMME is every other letter in my email addy. Remove that to reply.

Hello All:

I am hearing that many guys are addeding in another modulation IC, and
Modulation transformer to double the audio power, allowing a higher
carrier power to be 100% modulated.

Jay, I respectfully disagree.

An AM carrier doesn't change, just sidebands are added in the mixing (modulation)
process, and the instantaneous voltage shown on an o-scope will be 4 times greater
then the carrier power itself. Since the audio added is 50% of the carrier, the
RMS power will be 150% of the unmodulated carrier. The peak to peak voltage is
greater. Put a 1000 Hz tone on a signal and look at it on spec-an.

(make sure to do this test with an unmodified radio, "swing kits" ruin proper AM)

I think you need to go back and reread and comprehend what those old
ARRL handbooks say. Then m aybe I suggest a good university textbook
on Communications. Oh by the way you may want to brush up on y our
Calculus and Differential Equations at the same time.

AM(t) = f(t)*cos(wc*t) + A*cos(wc*t)

where AM(t) is your Amplitude modulated signal with respect to time.
f(t) is the function that mathematically describes the modulating
frequency.
wc is the carrier frequency
t is time
A is amplitude

Taking the Fourier Transform of the carrier portion (A*cos(wc*t)
yields an impulse function with amplitude A at frequency wc. The rest
of the equation is your double sideband suppressed carrier and when
the Fourier transform of this is taken it will yield a frequency that
is the audio frequency plus and minus the carrier frequency at
amplitude of half the audio power.

I hope that this helps in your understanding of what Double Sideband
Full Carrier Amplitude modulation, more commonly called AM, is.

It's about time to put this argument to rest...... you're both right.
The amplitude of the -signal- changes according to the modulation, but
the -carrier- is steady. The difference is that the signal (as seen on
an o-scope) is the vector sum of the carrier and the sidebands, while
the -carrier- (as seen on the spectrum analyzer) is only an isolated
component of the total signal.

Does that clear things up a bit?

Really now. Maybe you should go back and comprehend what told me. I

Yes, remove the A*cos(wc*t) term and you have Double Sideband

Like, where did -that- come from? It sounds like you misconstrued his
remarks in your zeal to spout off something you read in an old text
book that you picked up at a flea market. Well, read the book again
but begin with the first chapter, which will usually state that
Fourier analysis is only a mathematical tool for advanced engineering
concepts (i.e, IMD analysis) and is not normally used to explain the
general principles of amplitude modulation; a comprehension of the
differences between the domains of time and frequency are usually
considered to be sufficient for most educational purposes.


Instead I referred back to my college
communications textbook and quoted an equation that is the standard
form to mathematically explain how AM works.



Well, your 'education' is lacking since the formula you provided is
only the basic groundwork for Fourier analysis; the analysis of
non-linear mixing of any two signals requires a function (or several
fuctions if there are more than two signals or if the signals are
non-sine) requiring an iterative progression in order to integrate the
distortion products. But I don't see how -any- of that matters when
all Jay was talking about was boosting the audio in order to fully
modulate a bigger carrier on a CB radio.....


Now is that is pompous or being condisending then I apologize to him.
It was my intention to properly explain mathematically how AM works.
Your reply to me seemed to be more of an attack. I don't try to attack
but explain technicaly the best that I can.



It wasn't needed, nor was it requested.

Hello Scott:

I think we are getting the Time Domain mixed up with the Frequency Domain.

My comment was on a Oscilloscope voltage measurements which are in the
time domain. Without the RF Carrier voltage being modulated, increasing
and decreasing you would not have modulation of course. I never said the
power in the carrier changes. Or maybe I said it poorly?!??!?!?

But by added in more modulation power, like I said will allow for the
finial rf amplifier to have more modulation power, allowing for more RF
Carrier to be fully modulated, if it can handle the extra power. Simple
stuff. More power and modulation kicking a high drive amp will cook!

I have seen where the radios have been somehow modified to allow
unlinear modulation, that is the upper and lower envelopes are not
identical, and the radios still sounds ok. Yeah I don't know what they
do for the swing mods?!??!!?!

I put in Amplitude Modulation Envelope into Goggle and got a bunch of
neat web sites on the subject.

Jay in the Great Mojave Desert, ....just down the road ah ways from the

No, I meant 'disjuctive': a barely relevant act, response, opinion,
etc, made in a vain attempt to demonstrate superior intellect. A good
example would be when someone plays spelling cop instead of addressing
the topic of the discussion.

Did I make myself clear? Or is there something -else- you don't
undrstand?

No, just at first look I did not see the word "disjuctive" in a
dictinary.

Sorry for any inconvience.
