radio

There are many different types of radio receiving circuits:
-Crystal (see above)
-Regenerative
-Tuned Radio Frequency (TRF)
-Superheterodyne

Modern radios are superheterodyne. The superheterodyne circuit replaced the TRF and regenerative circuits by the 1930's, and crystal sets were nearly dead until solid state radio emerged.

crock

Short for "crock of bullshit."
