Even without translating the text, this graph suggests that with the TBA570, one might expect higher meter readings on FM than on AM. There is quite a gap at the 1 mV input signal level.

I imagine that in the FM case, the measurements were done with the two-transistor front end shown in the application note.

Here are the respective FM and AM quieting curves.
