The possibility of building radio detectors for muons and neutrinos using large masses (10 to the 9th - 10 to the 11th cu m) of glacial or polar ice, with a relatively small number of detecting elements (antennas) placed on the surface of the ice, is investigated. The idea is based on the fact that in the frequency range 10 to the 7th - 3 x 10 to the 9th Hz, the absorption of radio waves by ice is very low (about 0.004-0.0012 dB/m at -50 C in the range 500-1000 MHz). This permits the reception of weak signals from distances of the order of 1 km, with the direction and energy of the cascade determined from the shape and dimensions of the Vavilov-Cerenkov radio emission entering from the lower hemisphere.
