🔍 Key Concepts

• HF receiver signal path: RF → mixer → IF → detector → audio • Difference between noise limiter and noise blanker circuits • Where in the receiver chain a short, strong pulse can be removed most effectively without distorting desired audio

💭 Think About

• Think about what part of the receiver chain still has the signal in a narrow band (fixed frequency) form that is easy to mute briefly without affecting tuning. • Which stage, if momentarily turned off or bypassed during a pulse, would prevent that pulse from ever reaching the detector and audio stages? • Compare each choice: which one acts early and briefly on the pulse, and which ones act too late (after audio detection) or in a way that would distort the wanted signal as well?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option describes action at the IF (intermediate frequency) stage versus RF or audio stages. • Check which circuit description sounds like a limiter (clipping peaks) rather than a true blanker (turning gain off for a moment). • Verify which approach would best remove short, high‑amplitude pulse noise (like ignition noise) with minimal distortion of the desired signal.
