Regenerative one-tube receivers are shown in Figs 3 and 4 The antenna circuit is loosely coupled in both of these types, the single circuit arrangement being a too powerful radiator to allow its use with regeneration.
Coil B is in the plate circuit and coil A is in the grid circuit.
It is possible to feed energy from the plate circuit back to the grid circuit and reinforce the voltages in the grid circuit because the frequency in the plate circuit is exactly the same as the frequency in the grid circuit.

 Regenerative vacuum valve amplifier
Resonance of the plate circuit is secured by the variable inductance L3 which at the lower oscillation frequencies is shunted by condenser C-3 (of approximately.001 microfarad capacity).
The plate circuit is tuned by inductance P and condenser C-3, which are proportioned for resonance with the incoming signal.
The circuit, in brief, functions as follows: As the incoming oscillations are rectified and trapped in the grid condenser C, the plate current is gradually reduced (due to the increasing negative potential of the grid), and at the termination of the wave train, it returns to normal value.

The process usually required retuning the plate circuit or the detector tube each time the grid circuit was tuned to a new signal.

Regenerative feedback was effected by a variable capacitor in the detector plate-tickler-antenna circuit.

circuit, the current is just going through the motor windings and the energy is lost as heat and also as the current flow is opposing the direction of magnet rotation or rotation of the wheel, which also helps slow you down.

 Regeneration Revisited -- The Tesla Connection
In this configuration, conceived of by Edwin H. Armstrong in 1912, a portion of the signal from the plate circuit was coupled as positive feedback to the tuned antenna tank circuit.
On August 3 of that year he recorded a number of receiver circuit arrangements in which RF currents were fed back from the secondary side of a resonant transformer to a coherer located on the transformer's primary side.
The basic regenerative circuit is not often used in present day receiver front ends for a number of reasons, the most significant of these being an inherent form of instability.

Placing a winding in the plate circuit which is magnetically coupled to a coil which is in the grid circuit causes signal from the output to be fed back to the input.
Because the coil in the grid circuit is tuned to a specific frequency by the capacitor the feedback is at that one frequency.

 Withdrawl of Edwin H. Armstrong House: National Historic Landmarks Program (NHL)
During the summer of 1912, he created a new regenerative circuit and tested this device in the turret room of the Yonkers house.
Armstrong's regenerative circuit was the first radio amplifier and it became the basis of the continuous-wave transmitter that remains key to radio broadcasting.
After a legal battle to control his patent for the Regenerative Circuit that lasted from 1922 to 1934, Armstrong eventually lost the case in the US Supreme Court, but he continued to be recognized by the scientific community as the inventor of this circuit.

 FM only: Low Tech FM Radios
If you apply a FM signal to a good tuned circuit, as the frequency of the FM signal moves away from the resonant frequency of the tuned circuit, the tuned circuit will attenuate that signal.
Moreover, the antenna coupling circuit and antenna are both tuned to the frequency of oscillation.
With this circuit, the input is tuned to the FM station.

 Entertainment - Text
Radio's premier inventor, Edwin H. Armstrong was responsible for the Regenerative Circuit (1912), the Superheterodyne Circuit (1918), the Superregenerative Circuit (1922) and the complete FM System (1933).
In the summer of 1912 Armstrong devised a new regenerative circuit in which part of the current at the plate was fed back to the grid to strengthen incoming signals.
Thus this single circuit yielded not only the first radio amplifier but also the key to the continuous-wave transmitter that is still at the heart of all radio operations.

 Regeneration - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A regenerative brake is an apparatus or system which allows a vehicle to recapture and store part of the kinetic energy that would otherwise be 'lost' to heat when braking.
In electronics, the term means a regenerative circuit (or self-regenerative circuit) allowing a signal to be amplified many times.

 A Regenerative Receiver for 40 Meters
I wanted, not simply a Regen knob, but also a switch position called "CW/SSB" which would force the detector into its oscillating mode regardless of where the Regen knob was set when I was listening to Amplitude Modulated Shortwave stations such as the BBC, in the non-oscillating mode.
So the superhet user hears just the station he or she has tuned to, while the Regen or DC receiver user hears the desired station, plus an annoying chirping gibberish voice, if a station happens to be transmitting at that spot on the dial.
I noticed that the apparent strengths of the signals in the 40 meter band are relatively weak during the day; adding this bypass cap increases the RF gain (and sensitivity) noticeably.

 Antique Radio Classified--Homebrewing
The major drawback of the tuned-grid, tuned-plate regenerative receiver was that the plate circuit had to be retuned with each new setting of the antenna controls and grid variometer.
Although primarily meant for Amateur use, the Reinartz circuit was popular with the public and many were homebrewed for broadcast reception during the radio boom of 1922-1923.

 Some Regenerative Receivers
From schematics of other regenerative receivers I have recently seen, this same basic circuit can be used with two separate triodes, or a tetrode or pentode as the detector stage.
LOW MU triodes make the best regenerative receivers, since they slide very smoothly into and out of regeneration, whereas the higher mu triodes become quite "touchy" near regeneration.
These receivers are shown in the "Circuits" sections of RCA Receiving Tube Manuals, RC-14, RC-15, and RC-16, and possibly others.
