[QUOTE="Channel Hopper, post: 812277, member: 175144"] Regeneration amplification worked by feeding the initial received signal back into the circuit, giving greater sensitivity (up to some 30,000 times with later valve manipulation) and offering radio - then TV - broadcasts to be received at a far greater range. He went on to invent frequency modulation as well as superhets. Armstrong was paid well for his electrical work in communications, but his life was tarnished by others claiming they were the behind many of his inventions, and he committed suicide in 1954. _http://www.yonkershistory.org/arms.html [/QUOTE]
