Hi Bernie,
        Yes, it's been done, but it's megawatts transmitted, milliwatts or 
microwatts received. Any time you tune in a radio station on a receiver you 
are receiving energy. People have run small devices with energy received on 
crystal radios, if they are close enough to the transmitter. This is not 
free energy. It's energy that someone else has paid for, just like finding 
a dollar on the street isn't really "free money".
