Enhanced SSB Audio
My main
interest in enhanced SSB audio started in 1997 gained from where I
had been listening to G0BBD & Co a few years earlier on
the
20m band. Over the air with the help of Ed G0BBD I built my first
equaliser which consisted of a potentiometer, a few resistors and
capacitors soldered to the mic jack jack of the transceiver.This
added a touch of high bass and width to the D104
crystal mic where a compressor brought up the audio a db or
two.and my interest grew from there.
Most
of the stations at that time who were interested in essb were
mainly from the States with only the odd one or two from Europe.
Most
days
you will usually find me around 14.178 mhz qso'ing over the pond.
