in the Receiver:
In negative system of modulation, peak level of
the Receiver:
In the positive system of modulation the
corresponding stable level is zero amplitude at
the carrier and obviously zero is no reference,
and it has no relation to the signal strength
The maximum carrier amplitude in this case
depends not only on the strength of the signal
but also on the nature of picture modulation
and hence cannot be utilized to develop true
AGC voltage
