why, yes....about 50 years ago...CBU used to announce its shortwave call letters also: "shortwave CBUX"  I think.  As a small child, I couldn't understand how the "short way" of saying CBU could possibly be CBUX, so obviously wasn't a DXer at that time.   That's since been clarified, though there are perhaps still other aspects of the grownup world that remain mysterious. 

best wishes,

Nick
