This is beautifully presented. It is easy for the layman to understand, yet enjoyable for the radio engineer at the same time. Take a bow, you earned it. 73
I’ve been trying to get over the broad-strokes understanding of FM stereo radio hump for like 5 years and this video finally did it. I was just looking for something to watch while I made coffee. You’re making the internet a better place, thanks!
The best description of AM and FM I've seen. 100 years of radio in 34 minutes: quite a feat. I had the privilege of meeting Tom Lewis when his book was released and the film was in production. Thanks for all your work. K4XBC
I understand AM and FM a little better because I worked with analog music synthesizers in college. I also remember FM's ascendance in the 1970s, and how crisp and clear it was compared to AM stations.
Fantastic video! Pre- and De- emphasis, as well as the curves used in various noise reductions schemes, is also somewhat analogous to the RIAA curve used when cutting and then playing back vinyl. I've been involved in disc cutting in my lifetime, and like FM, it's magic and a wonder that it works as well as it does, ha!
I love this video! It was so informational, and I loved the metaphors and examples you provided as well. I'm slowly learning about this type of stuff to someday work in the radio industry, and I this also explained a lot about things I've noticed but didn't understand much about while using my SDR! Thanks for this video, and I can't wait to see what you'll upload next!
Sort of… since there’s more noise at higher audio frequencies in the demodulated signal, pre-emphasis helps reduce that high frequency noise while trying to keep the modulating signal intact.

Thank you so much!
With 35+ years in radio (also amateur), this was a great overview with some detail that I was very impressed with...well done...Thanks

That’s high praise! Thank you so much!
Thank you for your work, man. Very clear. I was surprised that the video has less than 100k views

Thank you for naming this video and taking the time to put so much detail.
What an absolutely fantastic video. Amazing explanations!
Glad you liked it!

When I want the challenge of not knowing why something works when it clearly shouldn’t, I go straight to audio and RF electronics!
An amazingly good video!
Thanks for the crystal-clear explanation. Immensely helpful, thanks!
Thank you for helping me resurrect my interest in broadcasting technology. Fun stuff.
bravo! well done professor
Excellent, thank you
two thumbs up. great video.

Glad it helped you learn something new! That's my goal when making these videos.
This is an amazing video. Thank you for making it. I will share this with a lot of people.
Best explanation I've seen. Tks. 73
Explain HD AM and FM. Most broadcasters have given up on HD AM
Has pre emphasis on fm anything to do with reducing high frequencys?
Sort of… since there’s more noise at higher audio frequencies in the demodulated signal, pre-emphasis helps reduce that high frequency noise while trying to keep the modulating signal intact.
Such great and high quality content. Hopefully you'll get more subs and views soon :-).
Hello sr very interesting to learn about antenas thaswyou and
