Heterodyne logo #20687A Heterodyne is generated when two frequencies which are close together (and of similar level) interact to give a 'beating' effect i.e. a noise which gets quieter and louder alternatively. An example of this is a twin propeller aeroplane whose engines (running at slightly different speeds) give a throbbing type of noise. See also: Beats.
