5 Claims. 1
This invention relatsjto 'improvements in multibandradio receivers. More particularly, theinvention has to fdo with a novel .circuit arrangement `by means .of .which the switching of an"y automatic .volume control' circuit may be effectedfsimultaneousw with the band switching operation, withouttheuse of additional switches or. switch` contacts.
:Infmulti-bandrrado receivers it is frequently desirable toapply. automaticvolumecontrol voltage toa certainmumber-of stagesin .one band, andto a different numbenofstageslin another. Thus, for example,.in.the broadcast bano` it may be .desirable toappl-y an automatic volume control-voltage to alll carrier frequency stages (i. e., radio-frequency converter, and intermediate frequency) whereas in laf-high .Y frequency band it may .be .desirable ilo-apply the automatic frequency control-voltage vto only iaaiew ofthe carrier frequency. stages, AIt is known, for example, that in-` certain highfrequency: bandsr improved reception is obtainedif the rst, carrier frequency stage is operated at-substantia11y full gain throughout, irrespectivefofsignal strength. So far as I am aware, ,practical @circuits for `effecting such changesinautomatic volumercontrol distribution have heretofore `requiredf'the 'use of additional switches! orswitchrcontacts.
.Itis the'principaltobjectfof the present inventionto provide. means :ifor effecting `such` changes inautomatic volumecontrol distribution Without theu'sezof. additional-switchesor switch contacts.
It is another object of the invention. to'. provide a simple and inexpensive-switchingarrangement for :controlling :both bandselecti'oni and automatic volume' control .:distribution, Without .'.cleleteriously aiectingfreception;in'eitherrband;

converter and intermediate frequency amplier stages 4 by way of the conductor I9.`
Band switching in the input circuits to the radio frequency amplier stage 3 is accomplished by means of a switch 20 which may be ganged with (or be a part of) the band switch E. In the open position (shown) thereceiver is adapted for operation in the'broadcast band, tuning being accomplished through the agency of the variable condenser 8. In this position the high frequency coil II! is eiectively in series between the high potential end of the resonant circuit 'I-8 and However, at broadcast band frequencies the inductance of coil I is negligible and its effect on the circuit is likewise negligible. The small high frequency tuning condenser I I is now effectively in shunt with the tuning condenser 8 and aids in tuning the coil 1. p When the switch is in its closed position, the loop antenna circuit is effectively shorted, while at the Sametime the high frequency resonant circuit comprising the inductance coil I0 and tuning condenser II is completed, permitting the reception of signals in the high frequency band as sup-1 plied by the dipole V2. It is an important feature of the invention that in the high frequency, or closed, position of the switch 20, the said switch is at the low potential end of the resonant circuit lit-II, rather than at the high potential end thereof. In this position the distributed capacity ofthe switch to ground doe-s not appear in shunt with the tuning condenser II and hence does not diminish or dilute thetuningrange of the condenser.
By virtue 'of the connections recited hereinbefore an arrangement has been provided wherein tlie'single switch 2G serves simultaneously as a band switching means, and asa means for providing an yautomatic volume control voltage for the amplier 3- during broadcast reception and for' vremoving said voltage during reception in the high frequency band. Thus it will be observed that during'broadcast reception, with the switch 20 open, automatic volume control voltage is applied to the control grid I2 of pentode I3 by way of the path I5, I6, II, I8, and the coil I0. On thc other! hand, during highifrequency reception, when the switchZ is closed, the left-hand end of the--series resistor I8 isgrounded through the switch 20, thus removing the automatic volume control voltage from the pentode I3. At the same time, the blocking condenser I4 and the series resistor I8 arecompletely removed from association with theresonant circuit- III-II thus reducing circuit losses in the frequency `band where small los'sesware particularly to beV avoided.
lIn general the resistance of the series resistor IB should be high, e. g., of the order of a half megohm or more, so that the closing of the switch 2U will not substantially reduce the magnitude of theautomatic volume control voltage supplied to the remaining carrier frequency stages 4 by way ofthe conductor I9. On they other hand, there ccY may be instances when it is desired to reduce the magnitude ofthe automatic volume control voltage` applied to the stages 4 during high frequency reception. plished by inserting the resistor 'I6 in the automatic volume control path as shown. Closing of the 'switch 20 willv then reduce the voltage suppliedto the, conductor I9 by'afactor depending upon the ratio of resistors IGand I8, as will be evident'to those skilled in the art.
In the interests of simplicity the invention has been illustrated and described as applied to a single stage in a conventional radio receiver. It will be evident, of course, that the invention is similarly applicable to other stages, or to more than one stage. The invention is capable of still other modification within the scope of the appended claims,
