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 ...
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 radio waves.
The block diagram shows the general form of a simple reflex receiver. The receiver functions as a tuned radio frequency (TRF) receiver. The radio frequency (RF) signal from the tuned circuit (bandpass filter) is amplified, then passes through the high pass filter to the demodulator, which extracts the audio frequency (AF) signal from the ...
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.

A simple crystal radio with no tuned circuit can be used to listen to strong AM broadcast signals. An early form of envelope detector was the crystal detector, which was used in the crystal set radio receiver. A later version using a crystal diode is still used in crystal radio sets today.
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.
