- Very high fidelity voice modulation
- Less subject to interference from atmospheric static crashes
- Ease of tuning on receive and immunity to impulse noise

- Only one sideband and the carrier are transmitted; the other sideband is suppressed
- Only one sideband is transmitted; the other sideband and carrier are suppressed
- SSB is the only voice mode that is authorized on the 20-meter, 15-meter, and 10-meter amateur bands

G2A08:
What is the recommended way to break in to a phone contact?
- Say "QRZ" several times, followed by your call sign
- Say your call sign once
- Say "Breaker Breaker"
- Say "CQ" followed by the call sign of either station
G2A09:
Why do most amateur stations use lower sideband on the 160-meter, 75-meter, and 40-meter bands?
- Lower sideband is more efficient than upper sideband at these frequencies
- Lower sideband is the only sideband legal on these frequency bands
- Because it is fully compatible with an AM detector
- It is good amateur practice
