SSB is an organization in the DoD used by the Navy to help address the common issues that Program Mangers and Manufacturers face when dealing with obsolescence issues for product sustainment and long-term support.

Users may open a separate Microsoft Internet Explorer browser window for INB and SSB then, toggle between the two as necessary. JInitiator is an add-on program that must be installed to use Banner. The first time you attempt to access the Banner Multi-Instance Entry Page an auto-check feature will look for JInitiator on your computer. If JInitiator is not found on your computer, you will receive a dialog box that JInitiator must be installed. Click to continue.

A - "SideBand" (SSB) is a mode capability found in higher-end CB Radios. You will have access to the Upper & Lower Sideband Modes (USB, LSB), In addition to the "Regular" (AM) mode on each of the 40 channels. When switched to sideband, each receive signal must be "fine tuned" in with the clarifier or voice lock control found on the SSB CB radio, otherwise people will sound garbled or distorted.

If you have existing systems with COTS assemblies and are facing obsolescence issues SSB can efficiently help reduce these risks.

SSB and ham radios usually consume 20 to 30 amps. So you must use a STO.P with a higher power rating. But, you will still need to use a regular STO.P for the rest of your electronic gear. No! The 'voltage regulator' used in this type of equipment is susceptable to damage by both Spikes and Transients. It will survive some overvoltage conditions but most overvoltages exceed 40 volts.

All entrants are allowed to use DX cluster. Open networks are common clusters. This Rule is against additional monitoring stations who submit their DX and mult info through closed networks only to the members of the network.

SSB stands for "Sunset Supply Base". Originally when a company needs to discontinue a COTS product/item the idea was to "Sunset" that item through existing supply base.

Yes. SSB only supports US government systems and has realtionships established with OEMs around the world.

Before you send it off for repair, a simple check might solve your problem. Kenwood used separate grounds on the MIC connector for the PTT switch, and the microphone signal and ground leads. If your microphone is mis-wired, and I have seen a number that are, you will get hum on your signal. Kenwood stresses in their owner's manuals, "KEEP THE GROUNDS SEPARATE" but some people have to learn the hard way.

When the unit is used as recommended with a narrow band fm receiver, it will work with any signal that has a carrier that remains within the IF bandwidth of the receiver. This would include unmodulated carriers, narrow band fm modulated signals, and amplitude modulated signals. Television video carriers can also be used, but the system will not track broadband noise or single sideband signals. Commercial broadcast (wideband) fm signals require that the receiver bandwidth be increased to 150 KHz.

SSB and Ham radios emit a relatively strong signal. These radios cover a fairly wide range of frequencies. When you transmit, the signal is picked up by your boat wiring and fed back into your electrical system. This is why you often see lights on your power panel glowing as you speak! STO.P's also have 'passive' filtering that helps to eliminate this problem from entering your electronic gear. For best results, mount the STO.P as close as possible to your electronic gear.

OEM send SSB their requested BOM(s). An NDA is signed prior to receipt of BOM(s) to assure OEM is protected.

A Life-Time Buy (LTB) at the COTS LRU (Line Replaceable Unit) level is often times the common approach for addressing obsolescence and can prove to be costly. A system uses a particular circuit card that costs $5,000 with a projected need of 100 cards to maintain the system. The cost to support and maintain the system with a LTB approach is estimated to be $500,000.

Mite-AwayII™ turns the standard Langstroth hive into a fumigation chamber. Any modifications such as SBB or under hive pollen traps are off label and can cause a drop in efficacy due to loss of vapor.

No. satcoms are supplemental. National and International regulations require VHF for inter coastal waterway/bridge to bridge communications and and/or MF/HF radio for ship to ship and coastal communications of greater distances.
