These are the 1st tests of the MC1496 DSB Generator. While not declaring victory, the results seem very promising. The tests had three Objectives: 1) Carrier Balance, 2) Speech Waveform and 3) Clock Switching.

Further testing is required to measure Carrier Suppression and the Sideband signal power. If we look at 140mv PTP with no modulation and 2 Volts PTP with audio that is a 23 dB gain. Not sure that is all kosher.

Stay tuned !
