This is amazing. What next? More stations, I guess.<br>

A team of researchers at Berkeley Lab and UC Berkeley has created the
first fully functional radio from a single carbon nanotube, which makes
it by several orders of magnitude the smallest radio ever made. "A
single carbon nanotube molecule serves simultaneously as all essential
components of a radio — antenna, tunable band-pass filter, amplifier,
and demodulator," said physicist <strong>Alex Zettl</strong>, who led
the research. "Using carrier waves in the commercially relevant 40-400
MHz range and both frequency and amplitude modulation (FM and AM), we
were able to demonstrate successful music and voice reception." Go to<br>
