  Having seen discussions recently on the use of galena crystals
 in crystal radio sets, I thought that I would note the following:

 On page 27 of the current "Nuts and Volts" magazine, there is an
 ad by Yeary Communications of a "Cat Whisker" kit.  Copy says
 "Authentic Cat Whisker and Galena Crystal Detector and Stand with
 All Brass Mechanism and True Woods Metal Crystal Mounting"

 circular and oval forms available: $19.95 & $5 s&h.
 address is 12922 Harbor Blvd, #800 Garden Grove, Ca 92640

 Disclaimer: I don't know anything about 'em... just saw the ad...
