I wonder how common they were as based on my personal experience the potential performance as a high quality AM detector is exceptional! Regards, Felix (vk4fuq) aka catman.
Can you furnish a schematic of the circuit? Nothing fancy, hand drawn is fine.
There's only a few stations around, that play music and most newer equipment, the bandwidth is too narrow to provide good fidelity.
