[Elecraft] ESSB

[Phil Wheeler]

I think you meant KHz, not MHz, David :-)

My thinking is that the narrower "communications 
quality" signal would be more effective.

How did you find 4KHz with none of those 
contesters on it? Incredible accomplishment!

In other words, will 500 watts with a 2.6MHz signal be more effective (stronger, punchier, more DBs transmitted) than 500 watts with a 4MHz ESSB signal?
