    Crystal Radio Detector Diode

    Germanium Point Contact - Gold Bonded

    Build a crystal radio receiver
    using a point contact diode.
    These are vintage point contact germanium diodes
    made by ITT.
    They work great in crystal radio receivers.
    The point contact is clearly
    visible through the glass
    (use a microscope or magnifying glass to see).
    These are high quality crystal diodes with a gold wire
    making the contact.
    They are rare - point contact
    germanium
    diodes by ITT are no longer made.
    Newer
    germanium diodes
    are typically not made with a gold
    wire point contact.
    Most standard diodes (including common silicon types)
    do not
    work well
    as a crystal detector.
    The best are point
    contact
    germanium with a low
    forward
    voltage.
    These
    diodes are
    guaranteed to work as crystal
    radio
    detectors.
    The part number on the diode is: ITT 1N270
    ~  See schematics on the web  ~

    These are 100% Guaranteed.
    You will receive 4 Crystal Radio Detector Diodes
    with Buy-It-Now.  While they last.
    ~ Recent Customer Feedback ~
    "A heartfelt thank you for your divine rare ITT Point
    Contact Diodes!"
    "I ordered these and they put out twice the mA of the Soviet D311A
    which to date I thought was the loudest diode (in my crystal radio)."
