Regeneration - Wiki link

Regenerative receivers offer sensitive selective reception to rival a superhet, with far less components. They are cheap and easy to make, good for experimenting. While they started with tube (Brit "valve") designs, many builders like semiconductors instead now, but the early design principles can be borrowed. Ok, superhets may be easier to tune.
Super regens, strictly those gennies with quenching extend into the microwaves.
Not surprising that these receivers continue to interest, even inspire...

Regeneration - Wiki link

Post by admin »

Well, everyone goes for Wiki when we want a quick background to something. so for Regenerative Radio the link is at: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regenerative_circuit

And for fun, here's Armstrong's picture to explain the idea:

Even includes a fine diagram of the new-fangled Audion tube. I guess we have a better symbol for it now.
