ABSTRACT:
To reduce noise-ups, a radio receiver includes a comparator which is electrically connected to a variable potential to set a threshold voltage and connected to the IF circuit of the radio for comparison. The output of the comparator is applied to voltage controlled resistance circuits so that as the strength of the signal drops below the threshold value, the resistances are reduced. These reduced resistances are in shunt with a filter resistor so that as the resistance drops, the frequency response of the filter is lowered. Signals from the IF stage are passed through the filter before being transmitted to the audio stage so that as the signal strength drops below the threshold value but before a complete dropout, the frequency response is lowered.
