Re: uBitx V6 - Transmit logic in firmware

QRSS comes the closest of no side bands. It is pure 1 frequency switching on and off or changing up or down by 5Hz every 3-6 seconds.

Hi,

I frequently abuse my transmitters or transceivers as signal generators
(finals disabled). It is very handy to have the radio operate at
whatever frequency I need without some artificial restriction. I *know*
what frequencies I am licensed to use on the air and I managed to stay
in those limits for a very long time using many different transmitters.

None of our signals has? a zero bandwidth no matter how you think of
them. Yes, Virginia, that includes CW and WSPR. Setting the center of
your signal on 7.00000 MHz is sure to have the lower frequency part of
the signal outside the band. You might 'get away' with it if nobody
notices. Most of us have better things to do than play radios police but
there are some capable people who are paid to do that. Don't give them
something to 'find'. QSY to maybe 7.0001. For voice go to 7.004 (some
places can use voice anywhere in the bands (as far as I know). Keep the
margins for regulatory sub-band limits, too.

73,
