I've been watching Hogan's Heroes reruns and in the beginning they show
Kinch operating some sort of radio. He's shown turning a crank looks
like.
What sort of radio could that be?


A Baygen? :-)

As Cinch turns the crank, there is a 'slider' moving inside of coil
(probably a primitive crystal set for receive only). You would expect that
being in a concentration camp, their radio would be make-shift at best.
