Many stations transmit voice signals
with a suppressed carrier
in
the single
side
band.(SSB),part of the radio trans-
mission spectrum that lies to the side
of the primary frequency signal. Amat-
eurs tend who transmit voice below 10
MHz use the
lower side band (LSB).
Above 10 MHz, they use the
upper side
band
(USB). Commercial utility stations
generally use the USB. A carrier has
to
be
added
to
make these signals audible.
1.
Turn on the radio.
3.
Set the BFO switch to
IN.
2.
Extend the antenna
fUlly
straight
up.
Many stations transmit unmodulated
telegraph transmissions
in
the shortwave
band. To receive these special Morse
code characters, the radio uses a
special circuit, a
beat-frequency oscill -
ator, to modify the transmitted signal
so
that
you
can hear it. This particular type
of telegraph transmission
is
called Con-
tinuous wave (CW) transmission.
