This circuit diagram shows the interconnections of parts for a very basic preselector which goes between and antenna and a radio. Source Drawn using free software by me using a well known circuit Date 2014-10-29 Author JNRSTANLEY. Permission (Reusing this file) See below.
English: Circuit of the simplest possible crystal radio receiver. Circuits of this type were used in the first experimental crystal radio receivers in the pioneering days of radio, just after 1900. It consists of a crystal detector (semiconductor diode) DI connected between a long wire antenna and ground, with a sensitive earphone E1 attached ...
English: Block diagram of a tuned radio frequency (TRF) receiver, the simplest type of amplifying radio receiver circuit. It consists of one or more tuned RF amplifiers, each consisting of a tuned circuit which functioned as a bandpass filter followed by a radio frequency (RF) amplifier; a detector (demodulator) to extract the audio waveform from the radio carrier wave; followed by an audio ...
Block diagram of a crystal radio receiver Circuit diagram of a simple crystal radio. A crystal radio can be thought of as a radio receiver reduced to its essentials. [3] [39] It consists of at least these components: [22] [40] [41] An antenna in which electric currents are induced by electromagnetic radiation.

English: Common crystal radio circuit, used in inexpensive crystal radios sold today. The tuning coil L and capacitor C1 together make up the tuned circuit; it selects the radio signal to be received, out of all the signals picked up by the antenna. C1 is adjustable, and is used to tune in different stations.
The transistor both amplifies and rectifies the amplitude modulated (AM) radio signal. Since the base-emitter junction acts as a diode it conducts only on the positive half-cycles of the carrier wave, blocking the negative half cycles, rectifying the carrier to extract the audio modulation signal from the radio wave. The collector current is an ...
English: A circuit of an inductively-coupled crystal radio receiver with impedance matching. This type of circuit, called a "two circuit" or "loose coupler" receiver, was used in most sophisticated crystal receivers from the wireless telegraphy era which ended in the 1920s, until today.
