Title: Question A lite Mod for Swan series for a little better AM Post by: ka3zlr on October 14, 2009, 09:37:33 AM Good Morning,
Awhile back there was a small discussion on the forum on the bettering of Swans for AM somebody did I think it was just bypassing the filter? Is that what it is, what condensers were called for .1 .01 I forget I'd be much obliged for any help. 73 Jack.

I just unbalance the modulator and turn the mike gain down to approximately half that used for SSB. The signal, however is SSB with carrier not DSB with carrier as with a normal AM signal. I keep transmissions short and have a muffin fan blowing into the RF cage. The 6LB6 finals get a workout. :) AMfone - Dedicated to Amplitude Modulation on the Amateur Radio Bands
