Detector for a crystal radio

[kd8dey]

In the old FT 225 RD ( 2 meter all mode) i used them to replace the 1 diode AM rectifier by a 2 diode rectifier for Am.
Worked like a charm.
In the FT 847 i replaced the bandswitch diode ( universal switching diodes a la 4148 type, with the Schottky ones.
Less noise, lower distortion.
Need some? ;)

I wouldn't mind trying some.
Maybe try it out in a crystal radio or see what difference they make in a Cobra 29 I fixed and had been trying to sell. where else would they work good at besides band switching & detectors?
