What does a beat frequency oscillator make audible?

  • A.Morse and single sideband signals
  • B.Frequency-modulated broadcast transmissions
  • C.Amplitude-modulated broadcast transmissions
  • D.The receiver's own intermediate frequency harmonics

Answer: A

It reinserts a carrier so that continuous-wave Morse becomes an audible tone and single sideband becomes intelligible speech, both being modes with no carrier of their own to beat against. Frequency modulation needs a discriminator instead. Amplitude modulation already carries its own carrier and needs no help. And making internal harmonics audible is a defect rather than a purpose. A missing carrier has to be supplied somewhere, and doing it at the receiver is what these modes rely on.
