I have seen that...somewhere. I may even have a copy of it.

I have several RAKs in which that was done. Whoever did it, also removed 
the audio tuning network....completely. However, I think this was done by 
one of the other guys who worked for my former employer who "left" me all 
the stuff. I have not yet tried one of these out to see how it worked.
