An interesting artifact of this is that at the very bottom of the AF

This is fascinating. It could be an artifact of the radio's design, or...
Could we possibly be seeing a process here in which the dynamic range of the
human ear/wetware is being increased by lowering the amplitude range of the
input? Maybe mammalian ears evolved to work better (i.e., more
discrimminatingly) at lower volume levels... This might make sense in
evolutionary terms, when you come to think about it.
