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.

I posted a screen grab in alt.binaries.basement.graveyard

I know there are better pics of the radio and I will grab them and post as
I come along them
