Very cool, Bill.    I made a number of them as a kid, got me out of 
writing more than one science report ;-)

I've uploaded the article where I learned about them from a 1945 book 
published by Popular Science called "Boys Fun Book", and you can read 
it, including some history about the Foxhole Radio, here:

*The neatest thing about this book is that is printed on very thin 
paper, and a note inside states that it's a special wartime edition, 
that is in compliance with government regulations regarding conservation 
of paper.
