Ok, here are some pics of the scope from the experimenting I just did.


First pic shows the radio showing a 2W deadkey on my Bird 43A wattmeter.



Second pic shows the 2W deadkey on my scope.



Third pic shows the radio modulating 100% on the scope with a 1khz tone.



Fourth pic shows the radio modulating with the 10uf 25V electrolytic capacitor. It actually still shows some cutoff on the negative peaks because I could not adjust the AMC back far enough to smooth out the waveform on the negative peaks. Positive peaks are about 200%.



Last pic shows the radio modulating with the  non-polarized .22uf mica film capacitor and 22uh rf choke. I readjusted the AMC back to where negative peaks are right at about 100% with no cutoff or pinched waveforms. Interestingly enough, the AMC adjusted right back to where it was originally where I had set it for the third pic, at 100% modulation. Positive peaks are right at 150% with no changes in audio clarity on AM or SSB. SSB output stayed the same.



That's my little test/experiment that I did today. Enjoy. :)
