[K3CAL] 2m SSB

[Wa4prr]

David, several radios are available for 2 Meter SSB operation.  I use a Kenwood TS790A and an IC706mk2.  There are many others available.  Normally, we use horizontal polarization on SSB.  

2 M SSB is weak signal operation with much greater range than normal FM...I often work over 500 miles on SSB.  73,
