A13. Heterodyning.
A14. To extract the modulating audio signal.
A15. Wide bandpass.
A16. A special type of detector and a carrier reinsertion oscillator.
A17. Attenuates the strong and amplifies the weak.
A18. To limit unwanted variations in the output.
A19. Weak signals produce bias, which could result in no usable receiver output.
A20. Dagc does not attenuate weak signals.
A21. It is heterodyned with the rf to produce an audio frequency.
