Default Re: GEC-Marconi single-frequency HF Rx

Sticking an FM IF in as a side-chain was also a way of implementing noise-operated squelch.

The up-conversion to 35-ish MHz suggests that the modules are intended to be made for anywhere up to 30MHz. If thet's the order of IFs then I'd be looking for a conversion oscillator as the LO for the mixdown.
