Would you please come and ask nicely. I don't like how you put your order.

By the way, I looked at the wiki link you posted and I can see why you are
misinformed by it; it's author was either simply not clear in his own mind,
or he did not understand that the "undulations" on the telephone line DC
voltage is NOT amplitude modulation in the multiplier sense. It is not AM
as it is being discussed in this thread of Radium's original post. If you
prefer the math proof, multiply the DC voltage frequency (0) by the audio
frequency (pick a number between 200 and 3000 Hz), and the product is zero -
No new frequencies are present. There's more to it than that but I probably
already lost you.

Thanks. I downloaded that yesterday and got a file with no extension.
I eventually figured out it's a PDF file and renamed it.

The site also has a rather sketchy article on antenna design at:
<http://www.c-max-time.com/tech/antenna.php>
I also found the chip sensitivity somewhere at
0.5uv typical
0.8uv max
with a field strength range of:
15-20 uV/m using a 10mm x 60 mm rod.

I'm currently slogging through the NIST web pile trying to find the
historical or estimated field strengths for the left coast area.
<http://tf.nist.gov/timefreq/stations/lflibrary.htm>
Ah, foundit:
<http://tf.nist.gov/timefreq/general/pdf/1383.pdf>
Table 2.4 shows signal strength in San Diego varying from 180 uV/m to
1000 uV/m. Now all I need to do is figure out how much S/N ratio is
required at the receiver input to properly decode the time signals.

All the information needed is probably there, scattered among an
assortment of documents, but I'm at a loss on how to estimate the
actual field strength sensitivity given the rod antenna
specifications. The formula #1 at:
<http://www.c-max-time.com/tech/antenna.php>
has all the right parameters, but I keep getting insane results when I
try to plug in real and estimated values. Maybe some coffee will
help.

I'll work on it more during the next few daze. It should be easy
(famous last words). However, paying work comes first.

You're both wrong. It is VIRTUAL SIDEBAND because it isn't completely
real and the other sideband which isn't virtual carries the missing high
frequency modulation info. Once it gets into your second detector then
it becomes real due to the laws of product modulation.

Next, you will be telling people that VGA doesn't stand for "virtual
graphics array."

But I know WHY the plate modulated rig creates sidebands, and you still
don't, because you refuse to learn.

Interesting, now you attempt to divert the conversation into the
modulation having been, FINALLY, impressed into the sidebands ...

Hell, it was just such a chore bringing your education up to speed on
this one point, I'd have to be paid to continue your education!

You allude to knowing how the sidebands come into being yet you cannot
provide any clue that you really understand AM, and you continue to think
microphone current in a telephone loop is the same thing. You're as FOS as
they come.

I doubt you have fooled anyone on this board with your attempts to look like
you know more than you really do.

Buddy, you speak about these people being "fooled", interesting term,
implying you consider them fools!

I doubt that is true, they have seen through you in a heartbeat, most,
probably long before now ... I imagine they are just embarrassed for
you--having made such an A$$ of yourself ...

You pathetically petty idiot ... I guess you call names because of your
age. Or, others have called you names and it has hurt your ego. Get an

Best hope in your therapy!

This is a stupid cross posted Troll thread so pretty please with sugar

Tricky!!!

It looks like AM but it isn't, it's just the phases sliding past
each other slowly and algebraically adding which creates the
illusion.

But if you remove the half volt bias you put on the
100 kHz signal in the multiplier version, the results
look exactly like the summed version, so I suggest
that results are the same when a 4 quadrant multiplier
is used.

And since the original request was for a "1 MHz sine
wave whose amplitude is multiplied by a 0.1 MHz sine
wave" I think a 4 quadrant multiplier is in order.

Ooops. I misspoke. They are not quite the same.

The spectrum is the same, but if you want to get exactly
the same result, the lower frequency needs a 90 degree
offset and the upper frequency needs a -90 degree offset.

And the amplitudes of the the sum and difference
frequencies need to be one half of the amplitude of
the frequencies being multiplied.

....Keith

That's right. They can't possibly be because the first instance
_was_ multiplication and the second instance addition.

That makes no sense since the frequencies are different and,
consequently, the phase difference between the signals will be
constantly changing.
