I have to disagree. During workshops I demonstrate the function of the
A-137-1 in combination with an oscilloscope. And I usually start with the
(nearly) unmodified signal. It's a bit tricky to find the right adjustment
of the controls but with the aid of the scops it works.

You are right. It's amazing that so far nobody discovered this mistake in
the sketch.

I'll have to try that out ...
