Nope, if you listen with your rig set to AM and the transmission is
DSB-SC you will hear a garbled mess.

Where might one encounter such a transmission? I've never heard anything
like that on the air, oh sure there's plenty of ****ty audio out there,
but not any that becomes clear with the BFO except SSB.

From a DSB-SC tranceiver of course. They DID used to make such a critter.



If you set both rigs to AM and lower the
deadkey to say an 1/8 watt with 15 watts of swing you can understand the
low dead key rig.

I'm failing to see a distinction between what you just described and
DSBSC.

It means if you listen to DSB-SC on an AM radio it will sound like ****.
