[Dixielandjazz] Haesler's crystal set.

[David Richoux]

I used a crystal set as late as 1964 in the good ol' USA - my father  
was teaching vocational electronics  at a community college and all  
of the kids in our neighborhood got crystal radio kits as a test/ 
comparison for the student test levels. It worked great! (couldn't  
get the Goon Show... but I now have many of their LP reissues.)
