Re: Radios

The first 'radio' that I actually owned was a crystal set. It must have been the late 40's, my father must have got me the bits and I built it in an old cigar box.
You poked a spring loaded pointer around on the crystal until you found a signal. You never knew who you'd get and you could rarely find them again and the signal was awful.
But it was magic!
