Dual loop receiver tuning and frequency tracking system

TLDR
In this paper, a first servo loop responsive to the beat frequency produced in a receiver automatically tunes an oscillator coupled to the input circuit of the receiver to the receiver frequency, while the oscillator automatically tracks this tuning.
Abstract
A first servo loop responsive to the beat frequency produced in a receiver automatically tunes an oscillator coupled to the input circuit of the receiver to the receiver frequency. A second servo loop then tunes the receiver to desired frequencies within the receiver band, while the oscillator automatically tracks this tuning. The second loop may include a comparator for comparing voltages indicative of the frequencies to which it is desired to tune the receiver with a voltage employed for tuning the oscillator.

Receiver including means selecting interference free channels

D Leonard
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe a device enabling the choice of a free channel, in a frequency range, which is available to a network of mobile subscribers greater in number than the channels, and if need be, according to a second characteristic having a lower quality level than the preceding one if no very good quality channel has been found.

Radio receiver alignment system

Toth Emerick
TL;DR: In this paper, a method and means for pre-tuning (or aligning) a crystal-controlled receiver to its proper operating frequency was proposed, which relates broadly to fixed-frequency radio receivers.
