Default Re: Two or three IF stage Chinese radio kits.

A well-engineered infinite impedance detector should be better than a diode. This one is not well-engineered. However, you might not be able to simply replace it with a diode as the IFT secondary might have quite high impedance. You could perhaps try turning it into a emitter follower after a high impedance diode detector.
