Crystal radio receiver, 1928

The radio receiver caught radio waves with the help of an antenna and converted them into sound. It did not need electricity for its operation. Zdenka Košak, married Gspan, listened to the first radio broadcasts of Radio Ljubljana with this radio set. Radio Ljubljana started broadcasting a regular radio program on the tenth anniversary of the new state in 1928.
