[Boatanchors] ssb and carrier/arrl study guide

[Glen Zook]

What that means is that to technically be called SSB
the carrier must be reduced at least 40 dB.  However,
the only band on which that would make a difference is
th 5 channel 60 meter band where only USB is allowed. 
Otherwise it doesn't make a "hill of beans"
difference.

"Single-sideband phone is the most popular form of
voice modulation in use on the amateur HF bands. FCC
rules require that the carrier be reduced to a level
at least 40db below the peak envelope power (PEP)
output of the desired sideband in a single-sideband
phone transmitter"
