This is one of my very first crystal radios that I have built using a computer to generate a front bezel. It has added a
more professional look to all my radios that I now construct. Since this radio was built, I have used the computer to save
pictures of each radio, design the schematics and the front bezels.
I decided that my radio collection needed a name that I could be proud of. I thought a lot of different name, but the name
"KING KRYSTAL RADIO" stuck out the most and all my radios I now build bear this name along with a number to indicate
the sequence that they are built.
