Re: ISB Receivers
As far as I know, ISB with pilot carrier (and SSB with pilot carrier) was used mostly on point-to-point links, with the change from AM happening in the years following WWII. Civil aviation HF went from AM to SSB supressed carrier. The merchant marine made the same change for HF in the 1970s.
The attached Wireless World article on Aircraft SSB included commentary as to why suppressed carrier operation was preferred in this case – Doppler effect was one of the reasons.
In hindsight perhaps this thread would have been better named as “Point-to-Point ISB and SSB Receivers”.
Cheers,
