*2.4.2 Focal points and drawbacks of a diode envelope locator*

The AM diode envelope discoverer had been viably used to quite a while. The most envelope pointer purposes of intrigue are: ease that means the diode indicator just requires the utilization of a couple of ease parts. This means it is perfect for use in transistor (and valve/vacuum tube) radios utilizing discrete segments, effortlessness means utilizing not a lot of parts, and the diode AM identifier was definitely not hard to complete. It was dependable and did not need any setup, while an envelope identifier inconveniences are:
