[Heathkit] DX-60 Repair Adventure, Which Sideband?

[Robert & Linda McGraw (K4TAX)]

I've been active on 3880 and 3885 for several years with a Heath DX-60 
running carrier control modulation and screen modulation and more recently a 
Heath TX-1 Apache.

As we approach Fall and Winter the atmospheric noise lessens and thus makes 
QSO's much more enjoyable in the evenings.
