Mike -- I'm using the ClearSpeech Base DSP made by Am-Com (they MAY 
have gone out of biz and Heil may be doing their stuff now???) and it 
works very well on SSB to clean up the trash. The signal you're 
listening to can't really be "down in the mud" or it gets lost....the 
other thing is that it takes some getting used to when listening to 
the "cleaned up" audio as it's not as natural as with it off. Those 
who have spoken over the older secure phones in the military or 
government will recognize the effect. But it's been useful to the 
point where copying a SSB signal would have been difficult and 
switching the unit in makes all the difference.
Don't have any real experience using it with digital/CW....sure 
others may chime in with their experiences.
