Hi, I'm hoping I'm in the right section, I wasn't quite sure.
For a couple of days I've been trying with no success to make a crystal radio.
To save me the trouble of having to build my own components, I decided to build a tuned circuit that should resonate at a radio frequency (and insert this tuned circuit into a crystal radio circuit) - if I did this and I happened to get an empty station (so if I had a comerical radio tuned to that frequency, I wouldn't hear anything either) would I be able to hear any static, or any indication that my crystal radio was constructed correctly and just needed to be retuned?
