[Elecraft] ESSB Equalization

[Richard Fjeld]

I have watched ESSB signals on the P3 and I have this question;  most receivers are limited to as narrow as 2.1 KHz, commonly 2.8 KHz on SSB.  That is about all they are going to hear when listening to a wide ESSB signal.  Unless someone with ESSB is in qso with a station of the same width, isn't it going to be wasted bandwidth?

Rich, n0ce

  It works quite well too!  Looks like Wide SSB TX and plain SSB TX are
  always left with the same profile.
