It still lives on - in an admitted niche - in amateur radio teletype
digital modes. Because RTTY uses a very simple FSK coding scheme, it
survives amplification from nonlinear amplifiers quite well. It means you
get teeth-rattlingly loud signals blasting in from stations worldwide.
Usually all over your carefully crafted low power signal ... grar.
