(radio slang)
An amplifier used after the transceiver output. So named for its purity of amplification. Linear, in the mathematical sense, means that what comes out is directly proportional to what goes in. As far as linear amps go, if you double the input, the output is doubled and so on. This does not generate any additional frequency byproducts. If the amp is nonlinear, sums, differences and all combinations of those are generated also.

Cephalization is a huge advantage for the animal world for the purpose of creating the centralized nervous system with sensory organs such as olfactory senses, sight or just the basic linearization of nervous tissue toward the head or sometimes anterior regions. This helps the animal to learn, adapt, compete for resources, and procreate within it's ecosystem, basically to think and learn.
