  Encyclopedia article on Crystal radio receiver [EncycloZine]   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Crystal sets were the most common form of radio listening device for non-professionals in the early 1920s.
A crystal set is the simplest radio receiver, consisting of a long-wire antenna, a tuner to select the desired radio signal by frequency, and a detector consisting of a diode demodulator usually consisting of a sharp wire pressing against a sensitive point on a galena mineral crystal in a holder.
A semiconductive mineral crystal, usually lead sulfide (galena) or cadmium sulfide was fixed inside a brass cup and the radio operator found the loudest signal by touching the wire, called a "cat's whisker", to various points on the surface of the crystal.
