----CRAYSTAL RADIO----

Requires a Piezo Earphone if you dont use the Amplifier (Piezo Earphone IS NOT INCLUDED)

Crystal Radio's will only work with a Piezoelectric (Piezo) Earphones. Cell Phone Earphones, MP3 Earphones, Transistor Radio Earphones WILL NOT work because Crystal radios only work with high-resistance earphones.

COLOR Matched Knob and PC Board
4 High Performance BAT46 Schottky Diodes

IT REALLY WORKS !!
How does it work, the Forward Voltage Drop is as low as .28 Volts !!
Even with the Low Forward Voltage Drop, a single Schottky Diode may not perform best due to the internal resistance of the Diode. To decrease the Diode Resistance I have connected 4 of them.

THIS RADIO COMES FULLY ASSEMBLED

Measures 54mm x 96mm and is great for Beginners, Survivalists or Advanced Enthusiasts

Switch enabled Coil expands the frequency Range to help cover the AM Radio Band

Instructions for getting the Operation Manual and Schematic will be provided after purchase

This Radio is Fully Assembled and Tested

Everything needed to listen to a fully functional crystal radio EXCEPT for the Antenna and Ground Wire

A minimum of a 50ft long outdoor Antenna Wire is recommended.
The best configuration for a crystal radio antenna is to run the wire horizontally between two electrically insulated supports as high off the ground as possible . Search eBay or the net to purchase a "Crystal Radio Antenna" Kit or to make your own..
The reason you need a good length antenna is because the more antenna you have, the more power your set will receive, and the louder it will be.
Antenna and Ground wire IS NOT Included
