Hello Ken,

Does that 60 W PEP mean 30 W fixed carrier and 15 W per sideband max when 
modulating?

How is that different from what the ARC-5 Tx can achieve? Or are you 
suggesting that CC modulation will give higher fidelity of the modulated 
signal? I would be interested in trying out your ideas.

Well, as soon as I can get to one of my hacked-to-ribbons-transmitters, and
can refurbish one enough so that it will emit some RF, I intend to install a
two-tube CC modulator.

It looks more and more like the better way to go.

Output should be around 60 watts PEP.

YMMV.
