Decent signal into Disgraceland in deep south. Trinacria at 2122 tune in, ID at 2126 followed by Aneon song Aurora.

Back 2208 - Children of the Grave.
2212: Sabs Supernaut Al style. Awesome!
2218: Junior's Eyes
2228: Blood for Blood

Fired up the Perseus22 (and removed a mono noise reducer) and it is indeed QSAM stereo!

Had been running at reduced power for some reason. Had running at 700W DC input...back up to closer to the usual 1500W.  I measure DC input as I haven't got anything useful to measure power in PEEPS. :/

S9+20 With Heavy signal and Thrash music. Vastly over driven audio. Not that it matters with the music selection LOL. Remember with audio drive, more inst always better! THX THW

I was overdriving the Q sidebands a bit I think.  Getting the gain staging between the mono I center and the Q/-Q sidebands is...tricky.  The ISB receivers don't care, envelope detectors, they care, its tricky and content dependent.  Sometimes, I get it wrong :/
