more
'punch' on transmit."
I have seen recommendations for both the 2.2 and the 2.5 kHz bandwidths,
but so far no one seems to advocate the 1.9 kHz bandwidth - the one
which is closest to the original KSB2 design bandwidth. Is this a
correct observation? Is there too much punch and too little fidelity in
that bandwidth, even for QRP SSB?
I am about to do the bandwidth mod myself and am leaning towards 2.2
kHz, but would like to hear other's opinions first.
Happy New Year to everyone on the list.
Hope to work many of you on the air in 2004. My Elecraft QSO counter
only stands at 9, but increased by 3 during the last three days. I am
still a long way from the Elecraft Century Club!!!
