SSB is fine if you have a small step size in the VFO (if digital), and
a stable frequency source.

I have no evidence to back this up, but AFN seems to be wider bandwidth
SSB than what is normally used in comminications. I generally use a
4Khz filter on AFN as it sounds better.

My old Panasonic RF-600 (I think it's a 600,[[it is stashed over there
on the floor with a bunch of my other old radios]] behind my old
antique pump organ that I use for my tv stand for my two tv sets) radio
that I bought brand new back in the 1980's at a local Jackson Service
Merchandise store has a BFO on it.What a piece of junk that radio is! It
drifts like crazy and it wont even turn on unless I shove a little wedge
between the earphone jack and the plastic cabinet.JUNK! I wish I had
never wasted my money on that piece of JUNK! radio.Panasonic = JUNK!
