:(This is 4.242) Never mind, I see the blurb on slope detection now. It was kind of hard to notice, buried there in the introduction/transition from AM to FM. [[User:Flayked|Flayked]] ([[User talk:Flayked|talk]]) 03:15, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

== Quadrature Detector ==

It seems that this article explains the quadrature detector as being an FM detector yet it can in fact be used for other modes including AM, CW, AFSK, etc. I suggest some revision to expand to other uses besides just FM.

Travis FM detector

How does a Travis FM detector work?Cuddlyable3 03:48, 18 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Is there any difference between a detector and a demodulator?

It doesn't seem so, but the article doesn't explicitly state this.

In the early days of radio when only morse was transmitted by on/off transmission, a receiver needed to be only a detector of electromagnetic radiation. Later, more advanced ways of modulating in a transmitter were introduced, such as AM and FM for transmitting voice, so receivers then needed to incorporate a corresponding type of demodulator. The term "detector" is still seen used for circuits that actually do more than just detect, for the historical reason given.Cuddlyable3 07:18, 2 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Slope detection

Which one of these FM detectors is a slope detector? If none, can we add something about slope detectors? 4.242.147.75 (talk) 21:07, 20 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
