Even some modern-day radios have that problem.  On FM!  I had a Kloss
Tivoli Model 1.  At certain frequencies, the LO would blot out spots
on other FM radios in my apartment.   And i Even out into the hall.
Pretty annoying.  And it wasn't just THAT one radio.  Every sample I
tried of that model did the same thing.
