[Elecraft] KX2/3 DSP AM Demodulation

[Fred Jensen]

A superhet converts the signal to an intermediate frequency [455 KHz?].  
Sometimes it does it more than once, 2 or more IF's, many today have a 
very high frequency first IF [70+ Mhz].

  A DC receiver converts the signal once to audio.  Regardless of the 
mechanics [which these days can get very complex], that's really all 
there is.
