IRCA,

This has interesting implications.

"Researchers at the National Science Foundation have utilized a single carbon 
nanotube to perform all the functions of a standard radio, acting as an 
antenna, tunable filter, amplifier, and demodulator. They were then able to 
tune in a radio signal generated in the room and play it back through an 
attached speaker. The device is functional across a bandwidth widely used for 
commercial radio. From the NSF: 'The source content for the first laboratory 
test of the radio was "Layla," by Derek and the Dominos, followed soon after 
by "Good Vibrations" by the Beach Boys.'"
