[ARC5] [BoatAnchors] OK Smart People- FM Demodulator

[Bill Fuqua]

Your post went to the wrong list. It went to boat anchors.
Now I see where the comment from
   However, if the coupling capacitor's reactance is small compared to the 
resistance (at resonance) of the
load, the tuned circuit and input resistance of the detector, an additional 
near 90 degree phase shift will
be introduced.
