Abstract
An arrangement for using crystal detectors in radio measurements is shown. It is based on the original use of a low resistance shunt across detector and galvanometer and calibration of the arrangement using r.f. currents which can be measured with hot-wire instruments. By increasing the shunt resistance, the necessary much higher sensibility is directly obtained. Performance data are given.
