All kidding aside, haven't some of those, been around since the first decade of the century? I first heard them on a Rat Shack DX 398,their version of the Sangean 909 and a 40 meter dipole. The 398/909 was an excellent portable for weak ssb and cw, but being able to pick up those low power beacons over nearly 3000 miles of rocks,dirt,and mountains still amaze me. And you could hear them nearly every day. Little radio killin' bugs!
