Let the spin begin!

Honestly, I'm not a big fan of your processors and have been hounded into trying to get an 11 by my management because of SSB. I have a 6, an 8400 and two Vorsis AM processors and wanted my own choices to replace my older gear. I'm actually happy that there are others that have come out with it.

No need for spin. Looks like totally valid data points to me! Should make for some interesting discussions at thew NRSC...

The reception reports for all three stations were similar in that the SSB case was determined to be no better and in some cases worse than
the DSB case. The mathematical simulations in this paper concur with the anecdotal result of our earlier work. Work on this system was abandoned after it was determined that the system produced no net benefit.

Seems valid to me!

How about coming out from behind your 'BabyDJ' handle, and getting involved with the upcoming NRSC working group. You up to the challenge?

Honestly I cannot as it could jeopardize my employment, but thank you for the offer.

C'mon rather evasive. A technical consortium designed for the benefit of broadcasting, where your voice could be heard, and this would jeopardize your employment? Not buying it.

I have no opinion yet on this SSB idea, but at least some guys are out there trying to do something beneficial. What did Omnia do to make you so negative?

Unfortunately I am in a situation that is less than ideal, yet I'm happy to still have a job. My managers would probably not be happy with me taking their time to work on the NRSC commitment and I wish I had more time to get things done in my stations first.

You seem to have plenty of time to post on boards.

As do you. Happen to be on vacation this week, how 'bout you?

The Bob Tarsio paper presents some valid information. Just remember what is being done with DSP now is light years ahead of anything done in analog 25 years ago. At one time people thought direct carrier generation would never be possible. It is worth another look.

I agree... actually that was my first thought when I read Bob's paper. I'm just afraid this will become another urban legend (which I have sat thru so many... how brand X processor doesn't pass EAS tones or how brand Y processor doesn't encode PPM correctly)

Yep!

That's all we're saying too...
