Default Powerful two-tube amplifier 1927

Hello colleagues, I found a nice guide on how to listen to crystal radio loudly. Antique radio equipment are beautiful.

Many thanks for this Jan. I really like the construction. Also, it is good to have a link to a Czech channel, as they don't always come up in searches. Any links to Czech web sites appreciated! I recently made a 2 valve amp to match a BTH crystal set, although I have yet to try it out!

Hi Tony, thank you for your comment, BTH Twin crystal? Nice receiver. I'll be happy to look at your amp.
Best Regards
Jan

Hi Jan, it's not finished and tested yet, but here it is. I had a very rough spare case for the crystal set so repaired it and fitted the amp in that. I made a drop in frame, but it left things rather tight. Your's is more elegant! Thanks for the links - very interesting museum.
