And  your premium receiver was no doubt built on a Quaker Oats PREMIUM
Oatmeal Box!

Well,

Nothing beats the excitement of an old oatmeal container wrapped with some
#18 enameled copper transformer wire to make a coil; some sandwich
wax-paper, some tin foil, and some cardboard to make a condenser; an old
Gillette Blue Blade for the detector; and a hi-impedance earphone. Ground it
to the hot water heater register and connect a wire strung from the upstairs
bedroom window out to the garage.

Best radio I ever had. And it counted toward my Bear Cub Scout Badge.
