I didn't say that it worked great, just that it worked. And I didn't
necessarily mean that you had to be in 2-way communication with the SSB stations.
What I said was that there is always something to listen to, if for no
other reason than to show that the radio actually works to people walking by.
For actual 2-way communications with an SSB station on the other end of the
circuit, you will with the BC-654 have to switch back and forth between AM
and CW. If just listening, you can always turn off the breakers in the
PE-103. Enforcing radio silence is one of their functions.
Plus, the BC-654 is the only common HF set I can think of where the
receiver and transmitter share a common mode switch.
