One my coworkers is interested in getting a license. I gave him a copy
of the ARRL technician book and am looking around for local classes he
can take. But while reading the book he can across something he doesn't
understand - SSB vs AM vs FM modulation. I have to agree with him that
the diagrams in the books aren't very clearly explained (though the ones
in the General class book are better than the ones in the Technician
book).

So here's my question: is there a Windows application or web app that
will display a carrier and its sidebands, along with the modulation, in
a useful way?

It doesn't have to take arbitrary audio input - a sine wave, a DTMF
tone, a slowly rising tone, and a small voice sample would be enough. It
should show something like an oscilloscope plus something like a
spectrum waterfall.

Does such a thing exist, perhaps as a Flash application?
