    My crystal radio circuit is not working as intended. What don't I understand?

    I see you guys have been discussing the diode I choose, the 1N270. I believe it is a functional germanium diode as evidenced by this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n3IeDz5yCSk I know there are better models out there but I need a little bit of help before I go shopping. I know a silicon...

    My crystal radio circuit is not working as intended. What don't I understand?

    Thanks srizbf, I was under the impression that the modulated signal could not induce oscillation in my circuit's current unless it had a sufficient drain for the charge be absorbed by, thus ground. Perhaps I did not understand your point, could you please clarify? Thanks for your time, Admiral

    My crystal radio circuit is not working as intended. What don't I understand?

    Hey Brian and thanks for the thought out response. I neglected to inform you that the top of the coil's turns have been sanded to remove the top layer of enamel. Also I and took care to make sure the exposed wire did not connect between turns. The shiny band on the coil in my picture is not...

    My crystal radio circuit is not working as intended. What don't I understand?

    Hello, I am a self-taught electronics hobbyist and I've been on a mission to understand radio transmissions. I've started with some simple crystal radio circuits and have had some success. Recently I attempted to build the circuit below: This is my fully assembled attempt: My ground in...
