I have a Sangean ATS 83 that does it (venerable mass market portable 
including shortwave and BFO).

Not only is the idea obvious, but any patent that was obtained, in spite 
of the obviousness, will be long since expired.

I was surprised that the K2 didn't do it and even more surprised that 
the K3 doesn't.
