That might be. I have never run any simulation on the circuit, but I
have built two of them and they work fine.

55dB of gain might be about right. The rectified DC is 3 to 4 volts
with an input (at that frequency) of 100mV or less.

Someone can clean up the filter design, if needed. I do not claim this
to be well engineered or an "end-all" circuit, just something that does
work. Tweaking of the resistor or capacitor values might improve things
on the simulation. I am not sure if the "ringing" would affect the
operation much, but it probably could be engineered to remove or limit
that, but I never saw any problem with the circuit from an operational
standpoint.
