Dan,

The KDSP2 does quite well for SSB.  Check your settings against the 
defaults shown in the KDSP2 manual.  Particularly the bandpass low and 
high frequencies.
Secondly, make sure the 'nr' and 'nt' is set to off (no dots before them 
on the display.  If those are set on, they can be expected to cause some 
distortion.

After a long hiatus, I've fired it up, realigned it successfully using Spectragram , and the audio still sounds horrible. I've come to realize that the parameters used for the DSP are probably not optimized for SSB. I think I still have the default settings entered.

Based on your experience, I'd appreciate any advice on how to find that sweet spot for SSB.
