- If two receivers are compared, the more sensitive
receiver will produce:
- more than one signal
- less signal and more noise
- more signal and less noise
- a steady oscillator drift
- A superhet receiver for SSB reception has an insertion
oscillator to:
- replace the suppressed carrier for detection
- phase out the unwanted sideband signal
- reduce the passband of the IF stages
- beat with the received carrier to produce the other
sideband
- A superhet receiver receives an incoming signal of 3540
kHz and the
local oscillator produces a signal of 3995 kHz. The IF
amplifier is tuned to:
- 455 kHz
- 3540 kHz
- 3995 kHz
- 7435 kHz
- In the transmitter block diagram shown, the "linear
amplifier":
- has all components arranged in-line
- amplifies the modulated signal with no distortion
- aligns the two sidebands correctly
- removes any unwanted amplitude modulation from the
signal
- The signal from a CW transmitter consists of:
- a continuous, unmodulated RF waveform
- a continuous RF waveform modulated with an 800 Hz
Morse signal
- an RF waveform which is keyed on and off to form Morse
characters
- a continuous RF waveform which changes frequency in
synchronism with
an applied Morse signal
