Will frequencies above 2 MHz be distorted when running through Scalar?

1. Entirely possible, and here’s the reasoning.
If you are tuned to 6 MHz; and use a 2 MHz modulator, not only is this literally turning the field on and off at an insane rate, for which the coil energizing time may not be able to keep up with, but the frequency spread is also equally insane.
You will generate 2 MHz, 4 MHz, 6 MHz, 8 MHz, 10 MHz, 12 MHz, 14 MHz, 16 MHz, 18 MHz, 20 MHz, 22 MHz, 24 MHz, 26 MHz, 28 MHz, and 30 MHz at the very minimum.
Whether all those higher frequencies are rendered smoothly or not I can’t say. I’ve not measured it like I have the XM and the GX outputs.

2. Looking at the presets used to drive the Scalar, JW is limiting the modulator to 50 kHz and below. Any frequency over this will be reduced.
Not sure if further testing revealed that turning the field on and off more than 50k times a second caused distortions or not, but this is where it is currently set.
