Class C operation seems very well suited to HF CW operation. At least
if the resulting envelope looks "nice" by ARRL handbook definition of keyclick reduction, I guess. But is it good enough for RTTY? How about for PSK-31? Olivia? What I've got is an old Eico 720 (Novice 75W-class transmitter biased for deep class C, for those too young to remember) that I currently use for CW, but would like to try out for RTTY or maybe PSK-31 by feeding appropriate waveforms into the "VFO in" jack. My gut feeling is that RTTY would be OK but don't really understand how class C will mess up the PSK-31 waveform or introduce intermod that will make the resulting spectrum broader than necessary. The Class C stages will clearly fail the usual SSB two-tone testing but what is a more appropriate test to say that it's good enough - or not - for PSK-31? Tim N3QE |
