My circuit is shown as a GIF image (an attachment).
My problem lies mainly in the components circled in red and purple.
It seems that if I use capacitors for the red components and resistors for the purple components and if the capacitors are of the correct values and the resistors are the values that you see, then I will be able to pick up Z103.5 and 103.9 (the Hawk in WoodStock).
the problem is that I don't know what values I should choose.
I think that one resistor should be lower than the other resistor, but I am lost on the values.
I understand that large capacitor values pass more base, and raise the volume, but I can't pick up remote stations. (but I can pick up 104.5 Chum FM)
Can someone suggest values for the circled components and explain why those values should be used?
I will think about adding a second diode in series with the one there when I see myself being able to pick up Z103.5.
Thanks
