The Simplest FM Receiver
Working
This is an extremely simple direct FM receiver. The T2 transistor together with the R1 resistor, the coil L the variable capacitor C and internal capacitance of the T1 transistor, comprises the so-called Kolpitz oscillator. The resonance frequency of this oscillator is being set by C to correspond to the one of the station that we wish to hear (meaning it has to be altered between 88 and 108 MHz). The signal, i.e. the information being used in the transmitter to perform the modulation, is extracted on the R1 resistor, and being led from it to the high-resistance headphones, over the coupling capacitor C1.
Construction
* The capacitance of the variable capacitor should be able to change from a couple of pF (Cmin) to app. 20 pF.
* The coil L has 4 quirks of lacquer-isolated copper wire (CuL), bended to have a 4 mm internal diameter. During the setup of the bandwidth, the inductance of the coil can be altered by changing the distance between the quirks. If the coil is stretched the inductance decreases, and vice versa. If this cannot give the desired results, new coil must be made.
* The telescopic antenna taken from a disused device can be used. If you can’t find one, you obtain very good results with a piece of isolated copper wire, about 60 cm long (the optimum length to be found experimentally).

Simplest FM Receiver
Electronics is the study and use of electrical that operate by controlling the flow of electrons or other electrically charged particles in devices such as thermionic valves. and semiconductors. The pure study of such devices is considered as a branch of physics, while the design and construction electronic circuits to solve practical problems is called electronic engineering.
