My super-regen receiver is functioning better, and I think I am picking up stereo.
I will explain what happens.
I start my receiver at the end of 102.9Mhz (local station). As I turn my tuning knob very slowly, 102.9Mhz fades out, and then 103.5Mhz comes in. After another slight turn, I get nothing (It almost sounds like someone has hid a transmitter in my room running no music at that frequency). After another slight turn, I get 103.5Mhz in again. So all together, I get the same station in twice.
This makes me think that I can receive stereo. Why? because I think the first time I can pick up 103.5, I picked up the right-channel, and the second time I picked it up, I picked up the left-channel, and I think that dead silence in-between is actually a special signal that indicates I'm receiving stereo.
can someone please clarify this for me?
I'm thinking of adding a stereo detection section to my superregen. That is something I will have to figure out, since I only want to use one tuning control.
