Handy Crystal Radio Antenna
In a ham shack, either half of a 40m inverted ' V ' dipole antenna would come in quite handy as a usable crystal radio antenna element.
However, a suitable loading coil would be required to make it resonant at the desired frequency.

A medium wave broadcast station antenna system generally comprises a ¼ λ vertical element
and earth.
It would not be wrong to infer that such an antenna would be ideal for a crystal radio.
However, practical reasons necessitate use of a much shorter element, with a suitable loading
coil making it resonant at the desired frequency.
Good results would be obtained with an element not shorter than 60 feet.
