Homebrew build question
#2

What you have is a variocoupler. It can be used in any of several ways in a regenerative receiver. Here is a simple circuit for the first stage of the 2 tube radio you propose, the second would be a simple amplifier following an interstage audio transformer which would go where the headphones are shown.

The two variable condensers are optional in the circuit and provide better, sharper tuning. The condenser across the phones is optional also. I hope this helps.
