"Récepteur à amplification directe". (...) Toute l'amplification jusqu'au détecteur s'effectue à la fréquence de l'onde porteuse. Il faut que l'ensemble soit accordé sur cette fréquence et il faut pouvoir faire varier la fréquence d'accord afin de sélectionner les signaux. Ce type de récepteur n'est utilisé que pour des gammes de fréquences assez basses (10 kHz à 300 kHz). 1, record 1, French, - r%C3%A9cepteur%20%C3%A0%20amplification%20directe
