[BC] Scope for Mod Monitor...

[Ben Barber]

OK,

The question about using a mod-monitor or not is more of a question of
convenience.  
Let's take the speedometer analogy.  If you have a tach, know what gear
you're in, what ratio your differential is, and know your tire size,
couldn't any *intelligent* person figure out how fast they are going?
(Maybe?? - Yeah Right!!)
A modmonitor at the station is a great tool for glancing at and seeing if
your modulation is correct or not.  When you get that call at 1:00am about
whether things are right or not, you can tell the board operator to look at
the monitor and tell you what they see.  I challenge you to give a scope to
a non technical person and have them give you any meaningful feedback, no
matter what time of day or night it is!

The conclusion; If you want to see your modulation quickly, accurately and
simply, install a modmonitor!
