The other for those with woodworking tool equipment.  Both crystal and tube detectors are utilized.  Detailed plans include construction of a loose coupler and a mahogany variometer.  Even includes details on how to make your own fixed condenser out of waxed paper and tin foil!  A must have for the early radio collector.
