A regenerative radio receiver is unsurpassed in comparable simplicity, weak signal reception, inherent noise-limiting and agc action and, freedom from overloading and spurious responses. The regenerative radio receiver or, even super-regenerative radio.... -
The logical first choice was to start out with simple regenerative circuits. Just one or two transistors and maybe a simple audio amplifier using one integrated circuit. I already have a few simple tube radios that I bought at flea markets, so I will defer.... -
The 1956 Regency ATC-1 converter heralded the dawn of a new era for amateur radio. The little converter had only two transistors - one PNP, one NPN, both germanium, both now long obsolete - but they were the start of a revolution. Amateurs responding to the.... -

A crystal radio receiver is a very simple radio receiver which needs no battery or power source and runs on the power received from radio waves by a long.... -
The following schematic shows a Crystal Radio Receiver Circuit Diagram with AF Amplification using a Germanium Transistor. The addition of AF amplification will.... -
Because of this audio mixer, I can compare the various receivers just by twiddling the gain controls. No switching required. Makes A/B comparisons a snap. (They are all driven by the same antenna). All of this used to be easy I just used a different speaker.... -
Contrary to what some radio experimenters think, a bipolar regenerative design can be made to work efficiently. The major concern is the low input impedance of the detector-amplifier bipolar stage. Nevertheless, it can be easily compensated with positive.... -
Sensitivity and selectivity are issues that will invariably concern a short wave listener when he wishes to purchase a new receiver. Commercially available communications equipment will undoubtedly fulfill his expectations, but we are talking here of highly.... -
The problem with amplifying weak radio signals is that you also amplify the noise. What you can receive depends on how much background noise is present, whether it be man made interference or static. In this design the RF signal is first met by a resistive.... -
The diagrams below detail the development of a simple modular radio receiver based entirely on circuits and devices studied during the Part IA course on Linear Circuits and Devices. This receiver may not take the market by storm! However, we hope it will.... -
This is the tuned radio frequency receiver for shortwave (25 meter band, 11. 7. 12. 1 MHz). It was created as experimental design for further experiments with the autodyne synchronous receiver (see Polyakov V. T. Autodyne synchronous regenerative receiver. -.... -
The notion of "crystal radio" is strongly associated with huge antennas and radio broadcasting on long and medium bands, in this article, the author describes the experimentally tested detector circuits of VHF receivers designed to listening to a FM.... -
This article describes some simple FM direct conversion radio receivers with phase-locked loop (PLL). This receivers uses the method of locking the local oscillator frequency with the input signal [1]. All this FM receivers are based on the circuit shown in.... -
A simple radio receiver circuit is shown in Fig. 1. This receiver is designed for reception of signals of amateur radio stations operating in the SW band of 10, 15, 20, 40 and 80 meters. This direct-conversion receiver consists of a set of an input bandpass.... -
The FM radio receiver with PLL designed by A. Zaharov [1] still attracts the attention of radio amateurs. As noted in a publication of the magazine "Radio" [2, 3], one of the major drawbacks of this type of detectors is the low adjacent channel selectivity..... -
A lots of radio amateurs have an interest to power a simplest radio receivers with the "free energy", i. e. the energy, taken by the receiver antenna directly from the air. The circuits described here can provide a radio reception using a loudspeaker. The.... -
While experimenting with different receivers and amplifiers powered by "free energy", it was found that it is more convenient to connect the audio amplifier to the receiver by using only two wires for audio signals and supply voltage. This would allow to use....
