I originally envisioned my Crystal Radio experiments would progress from simple radios to more advance radios, but my experiments with the Fox Hole Radios were actually a step toward absolute simplicity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These radios were designed to be constructed of commonly available items and be used as a kind of receiver of last resort, these radios looked like real challenge <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So why did I decide to experiment with these simple radios? When I saw this article, I wanted to understand how the radio worked, and what kind of reception you could get with these simple radios, I wanted to understand how men in fox holes used these radio<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When was the Fox Hole Radio Concept developed? The earliest reference I could find was from Modern Electics Magazine January 1909<\/p>\n\n\n\n
