Yes, it has been with us a long time. Largely (but not entirely) a legacy of the 75m AM v. SSB wars of the early 1960s. But in numerous discussions of the K1N issue was the first time I have ever heard of "DQRM". The addition of that term to our jargon must mean the problem has now surpassed some critical mass of pervasiveness.
