Re: [AVR-Chat] White noise detection?

2012-06-24 by Jim Wagner

Motorola 2Way radios used this for years. It was called "noise squelch" or something like that. You have a high pass filter that cuts off above the top of the voice spectrum. Amplify and rectify the filter output. You will have a rectified output only when there is nothing to hear on the channel.
