How do these stations with these EQ's sound so good and are so far away when they run "wide"? I have a built in EQ and if I use ESSB to get that nice sound, my signal gets buried in the noise even running 1500 watts over long distances. If I turn off the ESSB and run SSB, the stations hear me real good in the distance and say I'm booming in there. I think the low end eats up all the power. What are these "wide stations" doing to get over the noise? Are these stations using monster antennas with their 1500 watt amps or are they running extremely over the legal limit?
