Abstract :
Ganging LC and RC tuned circuits is investigated. Formulae determining ganging errors are derived (a case of two zero error points is considered). Broadcasting receivers are taken into account as a subject of potential applications. Calculations of ganging errors which would appear in radio broadcasting bands are presented. A possibility of using RC heterodyne oscillators in LC tuned broadcasting receivers is discussed.
