A schematic of a superhet AM receiver. Note that the radio includes an AGC loop in order to maintain the RF and IF stages in their linear region, and to produce an audio output not dependent on the signal power received. Here we show block diagrams for typical superheterodyne receivers for AM and FM broadcast respectively.
RE-784A Tube Location Diagram. The 784 series uses a total of six tubes, 5 of which are "miniature". The only "full-size" tube is the 17EW8, which is used to drive the AM/FM receiver circuit. 17EW8: VHF Double [Triode] 12BE6: Heptode Pentagrid; 12BA6 (two) Pentode: used for RF amplification; 12AV6: Duplex-diodes
English: Block diagram of a tuned radio frequency (TRF) receiver, the simplest type of amplifying radio receiver circuit. It consists of one or more tuned RF amplifiers, each consisting of a tuned circuit which functioned as a bandpass filter followed by a radio frequency (RF) amplifier; a detector (demodulator) to extract the audio waveform from the radio carrier wave; followed by an audio ...
English: Block diagram of a tuned radio frequency (TRF) receiver, a type of radio receiver circuit invented in 1916 by Ernst Alexanderson and widely used in the vacuum tube receivers of the 1920s.
The term All American Five (abbreviated AA5) is a colloquial name for mass-produced, superheterodyne radio receivers that used five vacuum tubes in their design. These radio sets were designed to receive amplitude modulation (AM) broadcasts in the medium wave band, and were manufactured in the United States from the mid-1930s until the early 1960s.
It consists of an antenna attached to a tuned circuit, which functions as a bandpass filter which allows through the frequency of the desired station while rejecting all the other radio signals picked up by the antenna, followed by a detector consisting of a semiconductor diode which extracts the audio modulation signal (sound) from the radio ...

Block diagram of a superheterodyne receiver. The RF front end consists of the components on the left colored red. In a radio receiver circuit, the RF front end, short for radio frequency front end, is a generic term for all the circuitry between a receiver's antenna input up to and including the mixer stage. [1]
