Many don't understand why anyone would want to use CW, either. To each
his own :-) . I like both CW and fuller sounding SSB.

If you're looking for punch, absolutely. If you're looking for really
smooth audio SSB, the W2IHY box is helpful. There are some guys using
equalizers with Ten Tec rigs, just get on the Ten Tec net on Sundays, I'll
bet you run into one of them. I know Jay, KM6VX, gets really nice sound
from his OMNI V (INRAD 2.8 filter) using an equalizer (not the IHY
though).

Good info. I want to fit another windscreen to my 705, which, with my
INRAD 2.8 filters, seems to do a very nice job as far as "good" (nicer
than average) audio (without going as far as some of those nuts out
there :-)
