It's kinda like making a battery out of a potato, only here you use a ham to power the radio. Attach the positive jumper to the small exposed end of the bone and the negative clamp to a spike inserted in the meaty part of the hock. Cloves and honey increase the power, thus the range. The ham must be cooked and NOT spiral cut. The spiral cut will create a short at high temperatures and damage the valutin spring in the nertz converter.
