it's interesting to make a radio from so few pieces.

I make my own detectors from iron pyrites and razorblades. I've heard stations 300 miles away with a razorblade detector, variable condenser, homemade coil and a piezo earphone.

Last night I heard a local station using an old penny as a detector. It wasn't nearly as loud as the razor.

I will have to carry all of these things into the foxhole with me next time we have WWII. Thanks for the idea... I think all of the cool kids call this by its proper name of "crystal radio" though.

So mac is junk?

@MrKristoball the mac is only powering the speakers, i had to amplify the signal for demonstration purposes. you can use a sensitive ear piece and it will work also

Does it must be rolled 120 times and why you use the black cable to the magnet wire?
