And Now For Something Completely Different

[Ron Hubbard]

Does anybody know of a schematic for an amplitude modulated amplifier?
Yes, I do mean *amplifier.*

Way too unspecific. Microwatts or megawatts? Audio? RF? What's
your objective?

Find a copy of the Radio Amateur's Handbook. You should find a
plethora of schematics and general information on amplitude modulation
techniques.

** See any guitar amp schem that has a " vibrato " effect circuit included.

A while back I made a sonic screwdriver for my nephew who was, is, a
big Doctor Who fan. It used frequency modulated sound to turn screws.
But at 143 dB it was too loud and people complained when he played
with it. So I decided to redesign it, use amplitude modulated
ultrasound which is still loud, but so directional nobody can complain
about it. I figure it would be easier to amplitude modulate an [audio]
amplifier than an ultrasound oscillator.

To turn screws? Really? How well did it work?
