Fw: Heathkit Crystal Rcvr CR-1

[Linden, Jerome]

Before moving to AZ, I was really getting into xtal radio rcvrs but
after I moved here, I found that I lived about 5 miles from a 50kw am
radio station.  I can receive them on my telephone.  I get them on xtal
radios with out any ant or ground hooked up.  Whether tuned by cap or
coil, it comes in across the board.  Is there anything I can do about
them? ..... JR

Hi Jim,
    Thanks for the note & all the links.  I'll post it to all the club
members who are on-line (abt 80%)  and see if that'll help drum up some
interest for our little contest.  I had found some, and in particular
found "~bhtongue/" to be extremely technical and interesting to me.  I
doubt that I'll get that involved, at least at the first, but who knows,
it might be catching, and the info he presents should help in
understanding what's going on at any level.
tnx & 73,
Al, W8UT

(I had to delete a lot to reduce the max. no. of lines, 150 is the
limit,
which I had exceeded.)
