With AM, it's ALWAYS the high frequency
that acts as the carrier
and the lower that acts as the modulation.
In AM, isn't the carrier the signal which always maintains a constant
frequency and only varies by amplitude?
No! The Carrier amplitude is constant. Sidebands are generated in the
modulation process. At 100% modulation, each sideband has 25% as much power
as the Carrier. The sideband signals vary in amplitude, following the
modulation signal.
If a carrier signal varies by anything other than just amplitude, then
it isn't AM. Right?
You repeat yourself, and the answer is still no.

Which digital readout receivers always show the carrier frequency no matter what mode?
