I've been checking out hf's and the operating bandwidth of those in the $800-$1500 price range (used) and found that 2.9 kHz is about the max.
I've heard quite a few HF transceivers that operate with little more than a heil or studio type mic and manage to sound excellent.
A couple that stand out are the ft 950 and Kenwood ts 870.
If I'm correct both those transceivers have an adjustable bandwidth feature that maxes at 2.9khz.
Your description of how to get the bandwidth of a particular radio is excellent. Thanks. My interest in ESSB is strictly curiosity. The technical aspects of radio communications never really interested me until recently. Even if I don't put the information I get to use immediately I'm enjoying the lessons and I'm sure that in the future your lessons will come in handy. Thanks again. 73
