[Elecraft] Controlled Envelope SSB

[NC3Z Gary]

Thanks for the link, my ARRL magazines take more time to get to me now 
that I am out in the boon-docks. The new QEX article is a good read, and 
with flex incorporating CESSB we can hope that maybe Elecraft can 
incorporated it into at least the KX3.

He explains there may be benefits to using ECSSB externally even with a rig that do not preserve the ECSSB completely.

It will be interesting to test this with my KX3 into a load.
