(under subclass 37) Subject matter wherein (1) means are provided for changing the generated frequency of at least one of the beating oscillators from one frequency to another, usually over a range of frequencies, the change may be by discrete steps or continuous over the range, or (2) means are provided for changing the amplitude of the generated oscillations of at least one of the beating oscillators or for effecting a change in amplitude at some other point in the system, e.g., in the mixer circuit.
