Barry:  Watch your bandwidth!  AM Signals should be no more that 6khz wide
and you are 7.4 khz with that 3.9 khz setting!.

Does the Orion II transmit full AM, that is both sidebands?

Hi Barry,

Yes, you're right about the bandwidth.  I had set it to 2100 because I had
a report that it improved the modulation depth.  I didn't quite understand
why, but as you said I let the on-air report be my guide.

This morning, however, I opened it up all the way (3900) and got a few more
reports.  They all liked my audio, both quality and quantity.  So, 3900 it
will stay, on AM anyway.

Tnx, and CU on 10.
