Building a Revolutionary Spark Gap Radio (ft. Blueprint)

It all started, with a spark. Invented in the 1800's, it was originally deemed "completely useless", and just a novelty. Blueprint and Plasma Channel collab to rebuild the most revolutionary form of communication the world has ever seen!

NOTE: My location has concrete floors, ceilings, and metal sheeting on sides. During indoor filming, grounded metal mesh placed over windows and doors. Do not attempt this without RF shielding your location first. *It is illegal to cause radio interference*
