I better check for pulled limiters this thing was just able to hit 10-12 watts average not PEP on ssb mode, WOW that is absolutely screaming & towards the max end of what I've seen a 1969 final do, so now I know that the final is probably real and a limiter is pulled somwhere.

The AM modulation looks clean on the scope, but if I scream (or crank mic gain) I watch the needle swing backwards on my AVG reading meter, so I know something else is not right, the dead key is under 3 watts and it swings backwards @ 13.8 Volts! OUCH!

I know from what I have read, some mods effect ssb audio, & some do not, it's all in what was done and how of course i'm just stating the obvious.

Thanks Again Guys
