Fix my connex 3400 hb sideband button

Each channel is a AM carrier frequency which is the center frequency of the channel. Each AM frequency has two sidebands, a lower sideband which is the below the center frequency (AM) and a upper sideband which is above the center frequency.
See the following for some explanation of sidebands:

Sideband sounds garbled on an AM radio. It also sounds garbled if you are one one sideband and the other station is on the other sideband. You may also have to tune your RIT or clarifier to make the audio intelligible.

Sideband transmission will cause the meter to swing as you speak.

Check the Mic. Sideband you can talk up. ie the louder you are the more mod.

My radio 148gtl d has low modulation

Beware that there is no carrier or deadkey on sideband. So there will be no meter movement until you add audio.

• Well, AM is Amplitude Modulation and Sideband suppresses the carrier and uses only the top half (upper sideband) or lower half (lower sideband) of the wave.

• Whether using AM, USB or LSB you are on the same frequency although if someone is on USB and you are on LSB you will not be able to understand what the other person is saying because you are using different parts of the wave. So 27.185 (channel 19) on AM, USB or LSB is still 27.185.

im not sure carriers are measured in pounds, but SSB is a supressed carrier mode, in SSB only one sideband is transmitted and the carrier is inserted at the other end in the receiver. In AM mode the carried and both sidebands are transmitted. with regular am there is a carried and when modulation (your voice) is added a signal appears both above and below the carrier frequency at a distance relative to the frequency of your voice. so if you have a carrier at 1000 khz and modulated it with a tone of 100 hertz the signal will contain frequencies of 900,1000, and 1100 hertz, then its changed to SSB by supressing the carrier (1000) and one sideband (1100) if you are on lower sideband and (900) if you one upper sideband, and transmits the remaining frequency.

U mean on sideband? Frequency counter only useful on other than sideband operation. This does not mean the carrier insertion osc. is on frequency. If it needs adjustment, your voice will sound high/ low on transmit. Incoming signals will sound right after adjusting the osc.

what radio do you have? does it even have sideband channels? some radios don't come with them, of fm or upper or lower side bands and short wave
