[AMRadio] 7190 and/or 7195

[Brett Gazdzinski]

I think not!
I often listen on both, and ssb can get right up to an AM signal and not even know it, causing all sorts of racket on the AM signal.

I was also surprised at some of the modern gizmo's on new rigs, like auto notch.
My pro3 has this, and it will eliminate a carrier, even when it moves around fast, and it hardly changes the ssb audio quality.

Every time I hear an ssb signal destroy an AM signal I want to hear, I switch to ssb and cant even hear the AM signal....
Its pointless (in my book) to fight them, move or deal with it, or turn the stuff off.

  I understand the problem well. And it just won't go away.

  But the SSB people should understand that our carriers QRM them worse than their Donald Duck splatter Arms us!

    We had a guy here on the east coast (W2VJZ) who after calling CQ on 3885 at 5 AM, had a mindset that he owned 3885 for the rest of the day.  It didn't matter that he was off  the air for an hour after the CQ, it was still his frequency and he would fight those or QRM those who came on or near 3885.  He went to his grave (SK) with this type of thinking and no one could talk him out of this concept.
