I never saw one but there were also ELF transmitters.

I think some of the frequencies are still in use but nobody is talking.
Imagine what it would be like if humans could directly perceive the sea of
electromagnetic radiation we live in.

One project I turned down was a botanist with a theory that trees
communicated via electromagnetic waves. The idea hasn't gone away.

There is evidence that EMFs do affect trees though.

It reminds me of when RF heat sealers were introduced. The folklore
suggested that women working around them either became sterile or
amazingly fecund. Humans love their stories.
