The low-level output of a detector is:

  1. Aapplied to the AF amplifier
  2. Bgrounded via the chassis
  3. Cfed directly to the speaker
  4. Dapplied to the RF amplifier

Correct answer: A — applied to the AF amplifier. From the official ISED question bank, verified word for word.

Why

The detector extracts the audio information from the radio signal, but this low-level output is too weak to move a speaker on its own. The full explanation — and one for every question — is in Pro.
