This page needs work, but thanks for the start. First, the title really should be "Plasma wave receiver" since it appears to want to focus on detectors for plasma waves. (Instruments typically identified as "plasma" instruments detect the particle species and velocities directly, not the associated oscillating EM fields.) Second, the article doesn't really talk about the receivers, but touches on history and the association with "space audio".

I work with Prof Gurnett's research group. If there is no objection, I'll see if I can get a few paragraphs from the experts here. No promises since everyone is always very busy.
