In a radio receiver with simple AGC The audio stage gain is normally controlled by the AGC The highest AGC voltage is produced An increase in signal strength produces more AGC The faster the AGC time constant the more accurate the output TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
Indicate which of the following statements about the advantages of the phase discriminator over the slope detector is false: Much easier alignment Fewer tuned circuits Better linearity Greater limiting TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
One of the main functions of the RF amplifier in a superheterodyne receiver is to Permit better adjacent-channel rejection Provide improved tracking Increase the tuning range of the receiver Improve the rejection of the image frequency TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
In a ratio detector the circuit is the same as in a discriminator, except that the diodes are reversed stabilization against signal strength variations is provided the linearity is worse than in phase discriminator the output is twice that obtainable from a similar phase discriminator TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
The local oscillator of a broadcast receiver is tuned to a frequency higher than the incoming frequency Because otherwise an intermediate frequency could not be produced To allow adequate frequency coverage without switching To permit easier tracking To help the image frequency rejection TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
The image frequency of a superheterodyne receiver Is created within the receiver itself Is not rejected be the IF tuned circuits Is due to insufficient adjacent channel rejection Is independent of the frequency to which the receiver is tuned TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
The typical squelch circuit cuts off An IF amplifier when the AGC is minimum RF interference when the signal is weak An IF amplifier when the AGC is maximum an audio amplifier when the carrier is absent TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
Indicate the false statement in connection with communications receivers. A product demodulator could be used for the reception of Morse code. The noise limiter cuts off the receiver’s output during a noise pulse. Double conversion is used to improve image rejection Variable sensitivity is used to eliminate selective fading TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
To prevent overloading of the IF amplifier in a receiver, one should use Variable sensitivity Variable selectivity Double conversion Squelch TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
Indicate the false statement. The superheterodyne receiver replaced the TRF receiver because the latter suffered from Insufficient gain and sensitivity Instability Gain variation over the frequency coverage range Inadequate selectivity at high frequencies TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
