Energy from thin air?

Is this the same energy we would use for a crystal radio?, Or , is there a more powerful frequency we could tap into???

Guest,

I cannot understand the context of your question. Are you trying to use commercial RF for power? It's tiny.

But, give us some details.

As TVP has said it is tiny" As I remembered from my crystal days: A fly at a distance of 1-2 meters made more sound than the earphone on my head.

Hen,

I suspect there are fewer and fewer of us who ever used a cat's whisker (No, not yours!) to listen to radio and, in the process, learned a tremendous amount about RF. I hope we don't lose that altogether.

Tom
