Yeah, I am no radio guru at all, but I would imagine picking up signals that close with some of the deep space network radio dishes (when they are designed for picking up signals many, many millions of miles away) had to be akin to someone sticking a bullhorn up to your ear and saying “HELLO THERE!!!”.
