Berkely Creates Nanotubed Radio

  • Thread starter Corned Beef and Cabbage
  • Start date

"nanotube serves as ...tuner, amplifier and demodulator." Add the antenna, and it might work as good as a 1917 crystal set! (or the $12 Radio Shack experiment set) Only FM. Cool, they reinvented the crystal set. Maybe there'll be a rush on Quaker Oatmeal boxes next.

And it will kill all that nasty cancer.....that started by hanging around all those high power RF plants to begin with ;)
(but yet they cant make a IBOC radio small enough to last on batteries as a Walkman...shades of the new Motorola 800MHz PushyTalkie in the 70s ;)
