My bad, when I looked at the Kenwood TH6 page, it said "FM transceiver". I
didn't look far enough to see it has AM and SSB RX. You are indeed correct.

0.1 to 1300 mhz, AM, SSB,
Works fine for such a test.

Might want to reconsider that. According to the Kenwood specs: "M/FM-W/FM-N/AM
plus SSB/CW receive”
That means it receives a lot more than just FM, so it should be good for these
tests depending on how sensitive the rx is.

Respectfully, this isn't a good test. Your HT is FM and per Wikipedia,
"FM rejects radio frequency
interference<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_frequency_interference><https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_frequency_interference>
better than an equal power amplitude modulation
(AM)<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AM_broadcasting><https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AM_broadcasting>".
You need an AM receiver to detect any noise.
