On a sunny day (11 Jun 2006 06:53:18 -0700) it happened "Telstar Electronics"
wrote in .com: Jay, Yes... SSB has it's advantages... but several disadvantages. The main reason I stay away from SSB is the critical tuning. Somebody always comes on sounding like Donald Duck... LOL. I spend more time tuning people in then talking to them. And then there's the three way conversation... where you have to tune back and forth between the other two guys. Forget it. And last, there's alway the fact that until the CBs reach a stable operating temperature... your tuning like crazy. Nope, SSB is not for me... I have my DSB-SC... and it doesn't have those problems. Something wrong here, DSB-SC received on a normal set can only be made 'inteligible' if it is received as SSB. SSB is simply one sideband of the 2 DSB sends, so your BFO is [just as] critical. If you BFO is of center (so you re-insert the wrong carrier) and your RX filter already removed the other sideband, then you have all the 'duck' sound of SSB. Moderns CB sets have no 'DSB' option, only USB / LSB, so always use one sideband. In case a set DOES pass both sideband, you get double the problem.... Maybe you mean something else by DSB-SC altogether? Leave SOME carrier? |
