Circuit 7 from Frank's "The Boy's Book of Crystal Sets" worked very well. Four MW stations and R2 on LW - all in 1973-ish. Maybe I was lucky that at the time, in Bury Lancs, all the strong stations were nicely spread out across the band.

That is one of the circuits that spurred me on the more investigation; adding transistors, and - eventually - a career in radio...!
