    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_amateur_radio_modes

    Morse code is called the original digital mode. Radio telegraphy, designed for machine-to-machine communication is the direct on / off keying of a continuous wave carrier by Morse code symbols, often called amplitude-shift keying or ASK, may be considered to be an amplitude modulated mode of communications, and is rightfully considered the first digital data mode.

  4. Superheterodyne receiver - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superheterodyne_receiver

    A 5-tube superheterodyne receiver manufactured by Toshiba circa 1955 Superheterodyne transistor radio circuit circa 1975. A superheterodyne receiver, often shortened to superhet, is a type of radio receiver that uses frequency mixing to convert a received signal to a fixed intermediate frequency (IF) which can be more conveniently processed than the original carrier frequency.

  5. Demodulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demodulation

    Demodulation was first used in radio receivers.In the wireless telegraphy radio systems used during the first 3 decades of radio (1884–1914) the transmitter did not communicate audio (sound) but transmitted information in the form of pulses of radio waves that represented text messages in Morse code.

  6. Wireless telegraphy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_telegraphy

    Wireless telegraphy or radiotelegraphy, commonly called CW (continuous wave), ICW (interrupted continuous wave) transmission, or on-off keying, and designated by the International Telecommunication Union as emission type A1A or A2A, is a radio communication method.

  7. Magnetic detector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_detector

    Marconi's wireless magnetic detector (London) The magnetic detector or Marconi magnetic detector, sometimes called the "Maggie", was an early radio wave detector used in some of the first radio receivers to receive Morse code messages during the wireless telegraphy era around the turn of the 20th century.

  8. Detector (radio) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detector_(radio)

    A coherer detector, useful only for Morse code signals. In radio, a detector is a device or circuit that extracts information from a modulated radio frequency current or voltage. The term dates from the first three decades of radio (1888–1918).

  9. Radar beacon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radar_beacon

    When a racon receives a radar pulse, it responds with a signal on the same frequency which puts an image on the radar display. This takes the form of a short line of dots and dashes forming a Morse character radiating away from the location of the beacon on the normal plan position indicator radar display. The length of the line usually ...
